"The preamble to Res. No. 4, adopted 1-9-1961, was as follows:
"Whereas the provisions of Section 114(3) and Section 122 of the Charter of The City of Salisbury (being, respectively, Sections 398(3) and 404 of the Code of Public Local Laws of Wicomico County, 1959 Edition) vest in the Director of Public Works, the obligation, duty and authority to enforce the City's building and plumbing codes and to approve proposed subdivision and resubdivision of land within the City; but it is believed by the Council that it is desirable and in the best interest of The City of Salisbury and the residents thereof that such obligation, duty and authority henceforth be exercised, in part, by the Salisbury Planning Commission (as to approval of proposed subdivision and resubdivision of land within the City), and, in part, by a new Bureau of Inspections to be created and to be headed by the Building Inspector (with respect to enforcement of the City's building and plumbing codes), wherefore it is necessary to amend said Charter provisions."
