PREFACE
This Code constitutes a
recodification of the general and permanent ordinances of the City of Wayne,
Nebraska.
Source materials used in
the preparation of the Code were the 1974 Code, as supplemented, and ordinances
subsequently adopted by the council. The source of each section is included in
the history note appearing in parentheses at the end thereof. The absence of
such a note indicates that the section is new and was adopted for the first
time with the adoption of the Code. By use of the comparative tables appearing
in the back of this Code, the reader can locate any section of the 1974 Code,
as supplemented, and any subsequent ordinance included herein.
The chapters of the Code
have been conveniently arranged in alphabetical order, and the various sections
within each chapter have been catchlined to facilitate usage. Notes which tie
related sections of the Code together and which refer to relevant state law
have been included. A table listing the state law citations and setting forth
their location within the Code is included at the back of this Code.
Chapter and Section Numbering System
The chapter and section
numbering system used in this Code is the same system used in many state and
local government codes. Each section number consists of two parts separated by
a dash. The figure before the dash refers to the chapter number, and the figure
after the dash refers to the position of the section within the chapter. Thus,
the second section of chapter 1 is numbered 1-2, and the first section of
chapter 6 is 6-1. Under this system, each section is identified with its
chapter, and at the same time new sections can be inserted in their proper
place by using the decimal system for amendments. For example, if new material
consisting of one section that would logically come between sections 6-1 and
6-2 is desired to be added, such new section would be numbered 6-1.5. New
articles and new divisions may be included in the same way or, in the case of
articles, may be placed at the end of the chapter embracing the subject, and,
in the case of divisions, may be placed at the end of the article embracing the
subject. The next successive number shall be assigned to the new article or
division. New chapters may be included by using one of the reserved chapter
numbers. Care should be taken that the alphabetical arrangement of chapters is
maintained when including new chapters.
Page Numbering System
The page numbering
system used in this Code is a prefix system. The letters to the left of the
colon are an abbreviation which represents a certain portion of the volume. The
number to the right of the colon represents the number of the page in that
portion. In the case of a chapter of the Code, the number to the left of the
colon indicates the number of the chapter. In the case of an appendix to the
Code, the letter immediately to the left of the colon indicates the letter of
the appendix. The following are typical parts of codes of ordinances, which may
or may not appear in this Code at this time, and their corresponding prefixes:

Index
The index has been
prepared with the greatest of care. Each particular item has been placed under
several headings, some of which are couched in lay phraseology, others in legal
terminology, and still others in language generally used by local government
officials and employees. There are numerous cross references within the index
itself which stand as guideposts to direct the user to the particular item in
which the user is interested.
Looseleaf Supplements
A special feature of
this publication is the looseleaf system of binding and supplemental servicing
of the publication. With this system, the publication will be kept up-to-date.
Subsequent amendatory legislation will be properly edited, and the affected
page or pages will be reprinted. These new pages will be distributed to holders
of copies of the publication, with instructions for the manner of inserting the
new pages and deleting the obsolete pages.
Keeping this publication
up-to-date at all times will depend largely upon the holder of the publication.
As revised pages are received, it will then become the responsibility of the
holder to have the amendments inserted according to the attached instructions.
It is strongly recommended by the publisher that all such amendments be
inserted immediately upon receipt to avoid misplacing them and, in addition,
that all deleted pages be saved and filed for historical reference purposes.
Acknowledgments
This publication was
under the direct supervision of Jan Shekitka, Code Attorney, and John Welch,
Editor, of the Municipal Code Corporation, Tallahassee, Florida. Credit is
gratefully given to the other members of the publisher's staff for their
sincere interest and able assistance throughout the project.
The publisher is most
grateful to Joseph H. Salitros, former City Administrator, and Betty A.
McGuire, City Clerk, for their cooperation and assistance during the progress
of the work on this publication. It is hoped that their efforts and those of
the publisher have resulted in a Code of Ordinances which will make the active
law of the city readily accessible to all citizens and which will be a valuable
tool in the day-to-day administration of the city's affairs.
