§ 1-6. Amendments to Code.  


Latest version.
  • All ordinances passed subsequent to this Code of Ordinances, which amend, repeal or in any way affect this Code of Ordinances, may be numbered in accordance with the numbering system of this Code and printed for inclusion therein, or in the case of repealed chapters, sections and subsections or any part thereof, by subsequent ordinances, such repealed portions may be excluded from the Code by omission from reprinted pages affected thereby and the subsequent ordinances as numbered and printed or omitted, in the case of repeal, shall be prima facie evidence of such subsequent ordinances until such time that this Code of Ordinances and subsequent ordinances numbered or omitted are readopted as a new Code of Ordinances by the city.

    Amendments to any of the provisions of this Code may be made by amending such provisions by specific reference to the section number of this Code in the following language:

    "That Section _____ of the Code of Ordinances, City of North Augusta, South Carolina, is hereby amended to read as follows: …." The new provisions shall then be set out in full as enacted.

    In the event a new section not heretofore existing in the Code is to be added, the following language may be used:

    "That the Code of Ordinances, City of North Augusta, South Carolina, is hereby amended by adding a section, to be numbered _____, which section reads as follows: …." The new section shall then be set out in full as enacted.

    In lieu of the foregoing paragraph, when the council desires to enact an ordinance of a general and permanent nature embracing a subject not previously existing in the Code, but which said governing authority desires to incorporate into the Code, a provision in substantially the following language may be made a part of the ordinance: "It is the intention of the Mayor and Council, in council duly assembled, and it is hereby ordained, that the provisions of this ordinance shall become and be made part of the Code of Ordinances, City of North Augusta, South Carolina, and the sections of this ordinance may be renumbered to accomplish such intention."

    All sections, articles, chapters or provisions desired to be repealed must be specifically repealed by section, article or chapter number, as the case may be.
