During the process of codification, certain changes were made to the Charter of the City of Hyattsville. The substantive changes are noted in the history of the Charter as "amended during codification; see Ch.
1, General Provisions, Art. III." Certain other nonsubstantive changes, such as in numbering, grammar and punctuation, have also been made throughout the Charter. These substantive and nonsubstantive changes will be adopted and/or accounted for in accordance with the requirements of Article 23A of the Annotated Code of Maryland. During the course of normal supplementation, specific dates of adoption will be inserted into the Charter where pertinent.
