The ordinances and certain resolutions of the Village of Bannockburn, as codified by General Code, LLC, and consisting of the Chapters 1 through 260, together with an Appendix, shall be known collectively as the "Code of the Village of Bannockburn," hereafter termed the "Code."

All such provisions are hereby continued in full force and effect and are hereby reaffirmed as to their adoption by the Village Board of the Village of Bannockburn, and it is the intention of said Board that each such provision contained within the Code is hereby reaffirmed as it appears in said Code.

If any clause, sentence, paragraph, section, article, chapter or part of this ordinance or of any ordinance or resolution included in this Code now or 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, chapter 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 Village Clerk of the Village of Bannockburn 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 Village Clerk of the Village of Bannockburn by impressing thereon the Seal of the Village of Bannockburn, and such certified copy shall remain on file in the office of said Village Clerk to be made available to persons desiring to examine the same during all times while 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 any of the ordinances and resolutions known collectively as the “Code of the Village of Bannockburn” or any new ordinances or resolutions, when enacted or adopted in such form as to indicate the intention of the Village Board 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 any ordinance or resolution contained herein, and such ordinances or resolutions may be amended, deleted or changed from time to time as the Village Board deems desirable.

All changes in said Code and all ordinances and resolutions adopted by the Village Board subsequent to the enactment of this ordinance in such form as to indicate the intention of said Village Board to be a part of said Code shall, when finally enacted or adopted, be included therein by temporary attachment of copies of such changes, ordinances or resolutions until such changes, ordinances or resolutions 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 Village Clerk, or an authorized agent of the Clerk, upon the payment of a fee to be set by the Village Board. The Clerk may also arrange for procedures for the periodic supplementation of the Code.
Any person who, without authorization from the Village Clerk, changes or amends, by additions or deletions, any part or portion of the Code of the Village of Bannockburn or who alters or tampers with such Code in any manner whatsoever which will cause the legislation of the Village of Bannockburn 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 fined not more than $750 for each offense. The court may, in addition to assessing a fine, impose a requirement that the defendant perform some reasonable public service work such as, but not limited to, the picking up of litter in public parks or along public streets or highways or the maintenance of public facilities.
