or supplements to any of the local laws, ordinances and resolutions
known collectively as the "Code of the Village of Munsey Park" or

additions, deletions, amendments or supplements to the Code shall
be enacted or adopted, they shall thereafter be printed and, as provided

subsequent to the enactment of this local law in such form as to indicate
