    PREFACE

    This Code constitutes a republication of the general and permanent ordinances of the City of Bryant, Arkansas.

    Source materials used in the preparation of the Code were the original Code, as supplemented through November, 2012, and ordinances subsequently adopted by the City. The source of each section is included in the history note appearing in parentheses at the end thereof. The absence of such a note indicates that the section is new and was adopted for the first time with the adoption of the Code. By use of the comparative table appearing in the back of this Code, the reader can locate any section of the Code, as supplemented, and any subsequent ordinance included herein.

    Title, Chapter and Section Numbering System

    The Code is organized by subject matter under an expandable three-factor decimal numbering system which is designed to facilitate supplementation without disturbing the numbering of existing provisions. Each section number designates, in sequence, the numbers of the title, chapter, and section. Thus, Section 6.04.050 is Section .050, located in Chapter 6.04 of Title 6. In most instances, sections are numbered by tens (.010, .020, .030, etc.), leaving nine vacant positions between original sections to accommodate future provisions. Similarly, chapters and titles are numbered to provide for internal expansion.

    Page Numbering System

    The page numbering system used in this Code is a prefix system. The letters to the left of the colon are an abbreviation which represents a certain portion of the volume. The number to the right of the colon represents the number of the page in that portion. In the case of a title of the Code, the number to the left of the colon indicates the number of the title. In the case of an appendix to the Code, the letter immediately to the left of the colon indicates the letter of the appendix. The following are typical parts of codes of ordinances, which may or may not appear in this Code at this time, and their corresponding prefixes:

    CHARTER CHT:1
    CHARTER COMPARATIVE TABLE CHTCT:1
    CODE Title 1:1
    CODE APPENDIX Title A:1
    TABLES OF AMENDMENTS TOA:1
    STATE LAW REFERENCE TABLE SLT:1
    CHARTER INDEX CHTi:1
    CODE INDEX CDi:1

     

    Indexes

    The indexes have been prepared with the greatest of care. Each particular item has been placed under several headings, some of which are couched in lay phraseology, others in legal terminology, and still others in language generally used by local government officials and employees. There are numerous cross references within the indexes themselves which stand as guideposts to direct the user to the particular item in which the user is interested.
