All provisions of this ordinance and the Code shall be in full force and effect on and after March 1, 1977.
A copy of the Code in a loose-leaf form has been filed in the office of the Secretary of the Board of Health and shall remain there for the use and examination of the public until final action is taken on this ordinance; and, if this ordinance shall be adopted, such copy shall be certified 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.
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 borough. 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 application 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.
Any and all additions, amendments 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 Borough of Madison" 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.
All ordinances of a general and permanent nature adopted subsequent to the date given to § 201-13A and/or prior to the date of adoption of this ordinance are hereby deemed to be a part of the Code and shall, upon being printed, be included therein. Attested copies of all such legislation shall be temporarily placed in the Code until printed supplements are included.
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 thereof 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 the penalties provided in § 201-14 of this ordinance.
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 section 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 provided.
Any ordinance of the Board of Health adopted subsequent to December 18, 1973 (Ord. No. 73-1BH).
Any provisions of an ordinance or resolution of the Board of Health creating employment, positions or offices and fixing duties therefor which are not provided in the Code hereby adopted and which are not in conflict or inconsistent therewith, or any ordinance pertaining to the salaries and compensation of Board of Health officers and employees or personnel policies.
Unless a specific penalty is provided elsewhere in Part III of this Code, in state law, or in other ordinances of the Board of Health for a particular violation, any person, firm or corporation who or which shall violate any provision of Part III of this Code or any code or other regulation adopted by reference therein or any order promulgated under such provision, code or regulation, by doing any act prohibited or declared to be unlawful or a violation thereby, or who shall engage in or exercise any business or occupation or do anything for which a license or permit is required thereby without having a valid license or permit therefor as required, or who shall fail to do any act required by any such provision or when such provision declares such failure to be unlawful or a violation, shall be punished by a payable fine of not less than $75 for each offense; not less than a payable fine of $200 for each second offense; and not less than a payable fine of $500 for a third offense.
Any subsequent offense(s) within a twelve-month time frame shall require a mandatory court appearance and a minimum fine of $750 or imprisonment in the county jail for a period not exceeding 90 days, or both such fine and imprisonment, or be subject to a civil penalty, not to exceed $500, which penalty shall be enforced or collected through any court of competent jurisdiction in accordance with the Penalty Enforcement Law, N.J.S.A. 2A-58-1 et seq.
The continuation of such violation for each successive day shall constitute a separate and distinct offense, and the person or persons allowing or permitting the continuation of the violation may be punished as provided above for each separate offense.
