The Morristown Municipal Code contains the codification and revision of the ordinances of the City of Morristown, Tennessee. By referring to the historical citation appearing at the end of each section, the user can determine the origin of each particular section. The absence of a historical citation means that the section was added by the codifier. The code is arranged into titles, chapters, and sections.
Related matter is kept together, so far as possible, within the same title.
Each section number is complete within itself, containing the title number, the chapter number, and the section of the chapter of which it is a part. Specifically, the first digit, followed by a hyphen, identifies the title number. The second digit identifies the chapter number, and the last two digits identify the section number. By utilizing the table of contents and the analysis preceding each title and chapter of the code, together with the cross references and explanations included as footnotes, the user should locate all the provisions in the code relating to any question that might arise. Likewise, ordinances that have been passed since the last update of the code do not appear here.
