Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Charter With Its Amendments and the Rebised by-Laws City of Middletown: Together With Such Other Laws of the State as Relate to Cities You have herewith presented to you the Charter of the City of Middletown, with the Amendments and Additions thereto, and the Public Acts relating to cities, together with the entire code of By-laws, the whole arranged for easy reference by suitable marginal notes followed by a copious index. The City of Middletown received its first charter as early as A. D. 1784. - From that time to 1821, several acts additional or amendatory to the charter were passed, when the whole were revised, the revision being made alike applicable to the cities of Hartford, New Haven, New London and Middletown. From 1821 to 1856, several amendments were made to the revised charter, the most important of which were the substitution of a Recorder in the place of the Mayor as presiding judge of the City Court, and the clothing of the Mayor with additional executive powers. A leading feature in all city charters is the power conferred to enact by-laws on particular subjects, which when properly done, have all the force of statutes emanating from the charter making power. Pursuant to the power thus given, laws or ordinances of this character were enacted by the city at various times during the entire period from 1784 to 1856, but during that period no very perfect, well digested code had been formed, Such by laws as were enacted, were published doubtless as required in the papers of the city, at the time of their enactment, and one or more attempts were made to put them in pamphlet form. Under these circumstances, it was not easy to arrive at a correct knowledge of our municipal regulations, and as laws to be obeyed must be known, and as it is the duty of those in authority to afford all reasonable facilities for such knowledge, the necessity for a revision and republication in proper form was apparent. The subject was brought to the attention of the city government early last year, but before any action could with propriety be taken, it was proper that existing defects, of which it was evident there were several in the charter, should first be corrected.
