[Adopted 5-13-2010 by Ord. No. BOH 2010-1]
Pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:49-4, the ordinances of the Board of Health of the Township of Holland of a general and permanent nature, as revised, codified and consolidated into chapters and sections by General Code, and consisting of Chapters 185 through 205, are hereby approved, adopted, ordained and enacted as Part III of the "Code of the Township of Holland," hereinafter known and referred to as the "Code" or "Health Code."
This ordinance and the Code shall supersede all other general
and permanent ordinances of the Board of Health enacted prior to the
enactment of this Code, except such ordinances as are expressly saved
from repeal or continued in force and effect hereinafter.
All provisions of this ordinance and the Code shall take effect
30 days after the date of the first publication.
A copy of the Code in loose-leaf form has been filed in the
office of the Secretary of the Board of Health and shall remain there
for use and examination by the public until final action is taken
on the Adopting Ordinance; and if the Adopting Ordinance shall be
adopted, such copy shall be certified as provided by law, and such
certified copy shall remain on file in the office of the Secretary
of the Board of Health, to be made available to persons desiring to
examine the same during all times while the 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 Holland" 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 Secretary of the Board of Health, pursuant to law, shall
cause the Adopting Ordinance to be published, in the manner required,
in a newspaper of general circulation in the Township of Holland.
Sufficient copies of the Code shall be maintained in the office of
the Secretary for inspection by the public at all times during regular
office hours. The enactment and publication of the 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 Secretary, or someone authorized
and directed by the Secretary, to keep up-to-date the certified copy
of the book containing the Code required to be filed in the Secretary's
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.
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 Board of Health to be misrepresented thereby.
Anyone violating this section shall be subject, upon conviction, to
a fine of not less than $5 nor more than $500.
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 section 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 section or parts thereof.
All ordinances of a general and permanent nature adopted by
the Board of Health and in force on the date of the adoption of this
Code and not contained in the Code are hereby repealed as of the effective
date of this adopting ordinance, except as hereinafter provided.
