101.100: TITLE: All ordinances of a permanent and general nature of the city, as revised,
codified, rearranged, renumbered, and consolidated into component codes, parts,
sections, and subsections shall be known and designated as the “Prior Lake City
Code”, which also may be referred to as “City Code”, “the Code” or “this Code”. Any
internal reference to ordinances, codes, chapters, subchapters, parts, sections,
subsections, provisions or words of like import are presumed to be references to
components of this Code unless otherwise specified. All references and citations to
this Code shall be deemed to include all additions and amendments to the Code.
101.200: ACCEPTANCE: This City Code shall be received without further proof in all courts
and in all administrative tribunals of this State as the ordinances of the City of general
and permanent effect.
101.300: AMENDMENTS: Any ordinance amending the City Code shall set forth the section
or subsection numbers to be amended and shall be incorporated into the Code as of
its effective date. The word "ordinance" contained in the ordinances of the City have
been changed in the content of this City Code to “chapter”, “subchapter”, "part",
"section" and/or "subsection" or words of like import for organizational and
clarification purposes only. Such change to the City's ordinances is not meant to
amend passage and effective dates of such original ordinances. When an ordinance
is integrated into the Code, there may be omitted from the ordinance the title,
enacting clause, section numbers, definitions of terms identical to those contained
in this Code, the clause indicating date of adoption, and validating signatures and
dates. In integrating ordinances into the Code, the City Clerk, in cooperation with
the city attorney, may correct obvious grammatical, punctuation and spelling
errors; change reference numbers to conform with chapters, subchapters, parts,
sections, and subsections; substitute figures for written words and vice versa;
substitute dates for the words "the effective date of this ordinance"; and perform
like actions to insure a uniform code of ordinances without, however, altering the
meaning of the ordinances enacted.
101.400: ADOPTION OF LAWS: Whenever a provision in this Code adopts the provisions
of state or federal law or state or federal regulations by reference it also adopts by
reference any subsequent amendments of such law or regulation, except where
there is a clearly stated intention to the contrary.
101.500: COPIES OF CODE: Copies of this Code are kept in the office of the City Clerk for
public inspection and sale for a reasonable charge.
101.600: FUTURE ORDINANCES: All provisions of this Chapter shall apply to ordinances
hereafter adopted which amend or supplement this Code unless otherwise
specifically provided.
