Pursuant to the provisions of Sections 50022.1 through 50022.8 and 50022.10 of the Government Code, there is adopted the “Vacaville Municipal Code” as published by Book Publishing Company, Seattle, Washington, together with those secondary codes adopted by reference as authorized by the California State Legislature, save and except those portions of the secondary codes as are deleted or modified by the provisions of the “Vacaville Municipal Code.” (Ord. 1042 §1, 1979).
This code shall be known as the “Vacaville Municipal Code” and it shall be sufficient to refer to said code as the “Vacaville Municipal Code” in any prosecution for the violation of any provision thereof or in any proceeding at law or equity. It shall be sufficient to designate any ordinance adding to, amending, correcting or repealing all or any part or portion thereof as an addition to, amendment to, correction or repeal of the “Vacaville Municipal Code.” Further reference may be had to the titles, chapters, sections and subsections of the “Vacaville Municipal Code” and such references shall apply to that numbered title, chapter, section or subsection as it appears in the code. (Ord. 1042 §2, 1979).
This code consists of all the regulatory and penal ordinances and certain of the administrative ordinances of the city, codified pursuant to the provisions of Section 50022.1 through 50022.8 and 50022.10 of the Government Code. (Ord. 1042 §3 1979).
The last ordinance included in this code was Ordinance No. 1012, passed August 8, 1978. The following ordinances, passed subsequent to Ordinance No. 1012, but prior to adoption of this code, are adopted and made a part of this code: Ordinance Nos. 1013 through 1037. (Ord. 1042 §4, 1979).
Whenever a reference is made to this code as the “Vacaville Municipal Code” or to any portion thereof, or to any ordinance of the city, the reference shall apply to all amendments, corrections, and additions heretofore, now or hereafter made. (Ord. 1042 §5, 1979).
Title, chapter and section headings contained in this code shall not be deemed to govern, limit, modify or in any manner affect the scope, meaning or intent of the provisions of any title, chapter or section of this code. (Ord. 1042 §6, 1979).
The provisions of this code shall not in any manner affect matters of record which refer to, or are otherwise connected with ordinances which are therein specifically designated by number or otherwise and which are included within the code, but such reference shall be construed to apply to the corresponding provisions contained within this code. (Ord. 1042 §7 1979).
Neither the adoption of this code nor the repeal or amendment of any ordinance or part or portion of any ordinance of the city shall in any manner affect the prosecution for violations of ordinances, which violations were committed prior to the effective date of this code, nor be construed as a waiver of any license, fee, or penalty at said effective date due and unpaid under such ordinances, nor be construed as affecting any of the provisions of such ordinances relating to the collection of any such license, fee, or penalty, or the penal provisions applicable to any violation thereof, nor to affect the validity of any bond or cash deposit in lieu thereof required to be posted, filed or deposited pursuant to any ordinance and all rights and obligations thereunder appertaining shall continue in full force and effect. (Ord. 1042 §8, 1979).
The ordinance codified in this chapter shall be published pursuant to law and shall go into effect thirty days after final passage and adoption; therefore, this code shall become effective on the twenty seventh day of September, 1979. (Ord. 1042 §9, 1979).
If any section, subsection, sentence, clause or phrase of this code is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this code. The city council declares that it would have passed this code, and each section, subsection, sentence, clause and phrase thereof, irrespective of the fact that any one or more sections, subsections, sentences, clauses or phrases had been declared invalid or unconstitutional. If for any reason this code should be declared invalid or unconstitutional, the original ordinance or ordinances shall be in full force and effect. (Ord. 1042 §10, 1979).
The use of the word “shall” in this code or any city ordinance, resolution, rule, or other regulation is not intended to impose upon the city, its officers, agents or employees a mandatory duty of care towards persons or property so as to provide a basis of civil liability for damages. Any provision of this code or any city ordinance, resolution, rule, or other regulation which governs the conduct of the city, or any of its officers, agents, or employees, shall be deemed to be directory, rather than mandatory so as not to impose any greater civil liability than required by law. It is the intent of this section to preserve the immunities provided by enactment’s, including the Tort Claims Act and not to impose on the city or its officers, agents, or employees, a mandatory duty of care toward persons and property so as to provide a basis of civil liability for damages. (Ord. 1268 §1, 1985).
