[HISTORY: Adopted by the Town Council of
the Town of Tolland: Art. I, 10-9-1990 by Ord. No. 45. Amendments noted where
applicable.] Be it enacted by the Town Council of the Town of Tolland
that:
[Adopted 10-9-1990 by Ord. No. 45]
The compilation of the Town Charter, ordinances
and regulations of the Town of Tolland, codified and consolidated
into parts, chapters and sections in the form attached hereto and
made a part hereof, is hereby approved, adopted, ordained and enacted
as the "Code of the Town of Tolland, Connecticut," hereinafter called
the "Code." All provisions contained in the compilation provided for
herein and known as the "Code of the Town of Tolland" shall be in
force and effect on and after the effective date of this ordinance.
The provisions of the Code, insofar as they
are substantively the same as those ordinances in force immediately
prior to the enactment of the Code by this ordinance, are intended
as a continuation of such ordinances and not as new enactments, and
the effectiveness of such provisions shall date from the date of adoption
of the prior ordinance. All such provisions are hereby continued in
full force and effect and are hereby reaffirmed as to their adoption
by the Town Council.
All ordinances or parts of ordinances of the
Town of Tolland of a general and permanent nature in force on the
date of the adoption of this ordinance which are inconsistent with
any provisions of the Code are hereby repealed from and after the
effective date of this ordinance; provided, however, that nothing
herein shall be construed as repealing or altering the zoning, subdivision
or inland wetlands regulations of the Town.
If any clause, sentence, paragraph, section,
article or part of this ordinance or of any ordinance appearing in
the Code or included in this Code through supplementation shall be
adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such
judgment shall not affect, impair or invalidate the remainder thereof
but shall be confined in its operation to the clause, sentence, paragraph,
section, article or part thereof directly involved in the controversy
in which such judgment shall have been rendered.
A copy of the Code, in loose-leaf form, has
been filed in the office of the Town Clerk of the Town of Tolland
and shall remain there for use and examination by the public until
final action is taken on this ordinance; and, if this ordinance shall
be adopted, such copy shall be certified to by the Town Clerk of the
Town of Tolland by impressing thereon the Seal of the Town of Tolland,
and such certified copy shall remain on file in the office of said
Town Clerk to be made available to persons desiring to examine the
same during all times while the said Code is in effect. The enactment
and publication of this ordinance, coupled with the availability of
a copy of the Code for inspection by the public, shall be deemed,
held and considered to be due and legal publication of all provisions
of the Code for all purposes.
Any and all additions, deletions, amendments
or supplements to the Town Charter or to any of the ordinances or
regulations known collectively as the "Code of the Town of Tolland,"
or any new ordinances, when enacted or adopted in such form as to
indicate the intention of the Town Council to be a part thereof, shall
be deemed to be incorporated into such Code so that reference to the
Code shall be understood and intended to include such additions, deletions,
amendments or supplements. Whenever such additions, deletions, amendments
or supplements to the Code shall be enacted or adopted, they shall
thereafter be printed and, as provided hereunder, inserted in the
loose-leaf book containing said Code, as amendments and supplements
thereto. Nothing contained in this ordinance shall affect the status
of the Charter or any ordinance or regulation contained herein, and
such ordinances and regulations may be amended, deleted or changed
from time to time as the Town Council deems desirable.
It shall be the duty of the Town Clerk to keep
up-to-date the certified copy of the book containing the Code of the
Town of Tolland required to be filed in the office of the Town Clerk
for use by the public. All changes in said Code and all ordinances
adopted by the Town Council subsequent to the enactment of this ordinance
in such form as to indicate the intention of said Council to be a
part of said Code shall, when finally enacted or adopted, be included
therein by temporary attachment of copies of such changes until such
changes are printed as supplements to said Code book, at which time
such supplements shall be inserted therein.
Copies of the Code may be purchased from the
Town Clerk of the Town of Tolland upon the payment of a fee to be
set by resolution of the Town Council, which Council may also arrange
by resolution for procedures for the periodic supplementation thereof.
Any person who, without authorization from the
Town Clerk, changes or amends, by additions or deletions, any part
or portion of the Code of the Town of Tolland, or who alters or tampers
with such Code in any manner whatsoever which will cause the legislation
of the Town of Tolland to be misrepresented thereby, or who violates
any other provision of this ordinance, shall be guilty of an offense
and shall, upon conviction thereof, be subject to a fine of not more
than $90.
In compiling and preparing the Charter, ordinances
and regulations for publication as the Code of the Town of Tolland,
no changes in the meaning or intent of such Charter, ordinances or
regulations have been made. Certain grammatical changes and other
minor nonsubstantive changes were made in one or more of said ordinances,
as authorized by the Town Council. It is the intention of the Town
Council that all such changes be adopted as part of the Code as if
the ordinances had been previously formally amended to read as such.
This ordinance shall be effective 21 days after
publication in a newspaper having a circulation in the Town of Tolland.
(During the process of codification, certain changes and/or additions to various existing ordinances were approved by the Town Council for inclusion in the Code of the Town of Tolland. Such amendments are noted in the histories of individual chapters as .".. amended during codification; see Ch. 1, General Provisions, Art. II." During the course of normal supplementation, specific dates of adoption will be inserted where pertinent in the text of the various chapters.
