Be it ordained by the Board of Health of the Town of Secaucus,
in the County of Hudson and State of New Jersey:
Pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:49-4, the ordinances of the Board of Health of the Town of Secaucus of a general and permanent nature, as revised, codified and consolidated into chapters and sections by General Code Publishers Corp. and consisting of Chapters 137 through 160, are hereby approved, adopted, ordained and enacted as the "Code of the Town of Secaucus," hereinafter known and referred to as the "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 hereafter.
All provisions of this ordinance and the Code shall be in full
force and effect after final adoption and publication as required
by law.
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 this ordinance, and, if this ordinance shall be adopted, such copy
shall be certified to 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 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 Town of Secaucus"
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 the said Code, as amendments
and supplements thereto.
The Secretary of the Board of Health, pursuant to law, shall
cause to be published, in the manner required, a copy of this adopting
ordinance in a newspaper of general circulation in the town. 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 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 Secretary, or someone authorized
and directed by him, to keep up-to-date the certified copy of the
book containing the Code required to be filed in his 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 of this ordinance 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 effect 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 sections 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
ordinance and not contained in the Code, are hereby repealed as of
the effective date of this adopting ordinance, except as hereinafter
