Item 9 - Public Hearing – Second reading Repealer Ordinance. In support of the Board’s goals
and objectives, the Office of the County Attorney is continually working to identify
ordinances that have been superseded by statute or that are outdated, redundant, or no
longer in the public interest. Once identified, these ordinances can be removed from the
County Code, thereby providing the public with more efficient access to the County’s
ordinances that are still in effect. This ordinance is the first step in this process. It
identifies ordinances that have either been repealed or that have been superseded by state
law. It removes the ordinances that have already been repealed from the County Code, and
it repeals the superseded ordinances and directs their removal from the County Code, as
well.
