Ordinance 2012-319, adopted March 27, 2013; in effect on publication (publication date not recorded), source page

Confirmed by the city's current text: the 2026 draft recodification (August 2026, not adopted) has the same words (§ 170.27, p. 677). This ordinance's text was consolidated because the later text agrees with it.
