For the aforesaid purpose or for executing powers
conferred upon the Council or upon the city under this Charter, the
Common Council may make modify, amend or repeal ordinances, rules,
regulations and local laws and prescribe, fix and enforce penalties
and fines for the violation of them respectively, for any offense
and may declare any such violation to be a misdemeanor and fix the
punishment therefore, but it shall not be necessary to publish any
such ordinance, rule, regulation or local law in the full text in
the official newspaper, designated for such purpose by the Council,
before it takes effect. Any such publication shall be sufficient,
provided that it contains a summary or abstract of the material portions
of any such ordinance, rule, regulation and local law. Every such
ordinance, rule, regulation and local law, together with the certificate
by the City Clerk of the time and manner of the publication, shall
be entered and recorded in a book to be provided and kept for that
purpose and said record of copy thereof, certified by the City Clerk,
shall be presumptive evidence in all courts and in all actions and
proceedings of the passage of such ordinance, rule, regulation and
local law of its having been published.
