Citation to the Milton Municipal Code: This code should be cited as MMC (Milton Municipal Code); i.e., “see MMC 3.08.010”. An MMC title should be cited Title 3 MMC. An MMC chapter should be cited Chapter 3.08 MMC. An MMC section should be cited MMC 3.08.010. Through references should be made as MMC 3.08.010 through 3.08.040. Series of sections should be cited as MMC 3.08.010, 3.08.020, and 3.08.030.
Numbering system: The number of each section of this code consists of three parts, in sequence as follows: Number of title; number of chapter within the title; number of section within the chapter. Thus MMC 3.08.020 is Title 3, chapter 8, section 20. The section part of the number (.020) initially consists of three digits. This provides a facility for numbering new sections to be inserted between existing sections already consecutively numbered. In most chapters of the MMC, sections have been numbered by tens (.010, .020, .030, .040, etc.), leaving nine vacant numbers between original sections so that for a time new sections may be inserted without extension of the section number beyond three digits.
History of the Milton Municipal Code: The Milton Municipal Code was adopted by the town council in 1984. The original publication was by Book Publishing Company. In 1993 the entire code was revised, reformatted and reprinted by Code Publishing Company of Seattle.
Legislation: The legislative source of each section is enclosed in parentheses at the end of the section. References to ordinances are abbreviated; thus “(Ord. 937 § 1, 1992; Ord. 594 § 2, 1984)” refers to section 1 of Ordinance No. 937 and section 2 of Ordinance No. 594. “Formerly” followed by an MMC citation preserves the record of original codification. A semicolon between ordinance citations indicates an amendment of the earlier section.
Codification tables: To convert an ordinance citation to its MMC number consult the codification tables.
Index: MMC Titles 1 through 18 are indexed in the MMC Index. The index includes complete cross-referencing and is keyed to the section numbers described above.
Errors or omissions: (1) Where an error has been made in the ordinance during the legislative process, Code Publishing Company adds a corrected word or phrase for clarity. Such additions do not constitute any part of the ordinance.
(2) Although considerable care has been used in the production of this code, it is inevitable that in so large a work that there will be errors. As users of this code detect such errors, it is requested that a note citing the section involved and the nature of the error be mailed to: Code Publishing Company, P. O. Box 51164, Seattle, WA 98115-1164, so that correction may be made in a subsequent update.
