§ 9-8. Reenactment and publication of ordinances.

In the year following the initial review as referenced in section 9-7, and at five-year intervals thereafter, the city council shall cause to be prepared a proposed revision or recodification of all city ordinances which shall be submitted to the city council for reenactment. The city council shall adopt the proposed revision or recodification with or without amendment prior to the expiration of the calendar year in which it is submitted to them. Such revisions or recodification shall be prepared under the supervision of the city solicitor, or if the city council so directs by special counsel retained for such purposes. Copies of the revised or recodified ordinances shall be made available for distribution; provided, however, that a charge not to exceed the actual cost per copy of reproduction may be charged.

In each year between such reenactments, an annual supplement shall be published in at least one newspaper of general circulation in the city which shall contain all ordinances and amendments to ordinances adopted in the preceding year.
