[Adopted 5-10-2010 by Ord. No. BOH-2010-01]
Pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:49-4, the ordinances of the Township of Montville of a general and permanent nature adopted by the Board of Health of the Township of Montville, as revised, codified and consolidated into chapters and sections by General Code, and consisting of Chapters 405 through 442, are hereby approved, adopted, ordained and enacted as the "Code of the Township of Montville," hereinafter known and referred to as the "Code."
This ordinance and the Code shall supersede all other general
and permanent ordinances enacted prior to the enactment of this Code,
except such ordinances as are hereinafter expressly saved from repeal
or continued in force.
This ordinance shall take effect immediately upon passage and
publication according to law.
A copy of the Code in loose-leaf form has been filed in the
office of the Secretary of the Board of Health or Borough Clerk 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 Secretary or Clerk
of the Township of Montville and such certified copy shall remain
on file in the office of the Clerk or Board of Health Secretary, to
be made available to persons desiring to examine the same during all
times while said Code is in effect.
Any and all additions, amendments or supplements to the Code,
when passed and adopted in such form as to indicate the intent of
the Board of Health to make them a part thereof, shall be deemed to
be incorporated into such Code so that reference to the "Code of the
Township of Montville" shall be understood and intended to include
such additions and amendments. Whenever such additions, amendments
or supplements to the Code shall be adopted, they shall thereafter
be printed and, as provided hereunder, inserted in the loose-leaf
book containing said Code as amendments and supplements thereto.
The Clerk of the Township of Montville or the Secretary of the
Board of Health, pursuant to law, shall cause this Adopting Ordinance
to be published, in the manner required, in a newspaper of general
circulation in the Borough. Sufficient copies of the Code shall be
maintained in the office of the Clerk or Secretary for inspection
by the public at all times during regular office hours. The enactment
and publication of this Adopting Ordinance, coupled with availability
of copies 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.
It shall be the duty of the Clerk or Secretary or someone authorized
and directed by the Clerk or Secretary to keep up-to-date the certified
copy of the book containing the Code required to be filed in his or
her office for the use of the public. All changes in said Code and
all ordinances adopted subsequent to the effective date of this codification
which shall be adopted specifically as part of the Code shall, when
finally adopted, be included therein by reference until such changes
or new ordinances are printed as supplements to said Code book, at
which time such supplements shall be inserted therein.
Copies of the Code, or any chapter or portion of it, may be
purchased from the Clerk or Secretary, or an authorized agent of either,
upon the payment of a fee authorized by the Borough. The Clerk or
Secretary shall also arrange for procedures for the periodic supplementation
of the Code.
It shall be unlawful for anyone to improperly change or amend,
by additions or deletions, any part or portion of the Code or to alter
or tamper with such Code in any manner whatsoever which will cause
the law of the Township of Montville to be misrepresented thereby.
Anyone violating this section or any part of this ordinance shall
be subject to penalties as provided by law.
Each section of the Code and every part of each section is an
independent section or part of a section, and the holding of any section
or a part thereof to be unconstitutional, void or ineffective for
any cause shall not be deemed to affect the validity or constitutionality
of any other sections or parts thereof.
Each section of this ordinance is an independent section, and
the holding of any section or part thereof to be unconstitutional,
void or ineffective for any cause shall not be deemed to affect the
validity or constitutionality of any other sections or parts thereof.

nature adopted and in force on the date of the adoption of this ordinance
and not contained in the Code are hereby repealed as of the effective
date of this Adopting Ordinance, except as hereinafter provided.
