PREFACE
The Cupertino Municipal Code, originally published by Book Publishing
Company in 1973, has been kept current by regular supplementation.
During original codification, th~~ ordinances were compiled, edited and
indexed by the editorial staff of Book Publishing Company under the direction
of Mr. David H. Adams, city attorney.
The code is organized by subject matter under an expandable three-factor
decimal numbering system which is designed to facilitate supplementation
without disturbing the numbering of existing provisions. Each section number
designates, in sequence, the number:; of the title, chapter, and section. Thus,
Section 18.12.050 is Section .050, located in Chapter .12 of Title 18. In most
instances, sections are numbered by tens (.010, .020, .030, etc.), leaving nine
vacant positions between original sections to accommodate future provisions.
Similarly, chapters and titles are numbered to provide for internal expansion.
In parentheses following each section is a legislative history identifying
the specific sources for the provisions of that section. This legislative history is
complemented by an ordinance dispo:iition table, following the text of the code,
listing by number all ordinances, their subjects, and where they appear in the
codification.
Footnotes referring to applicable statutory provisions are located
throughout the text. Asubject-matter index, with complete cross-referencing,
locates specific code provisions by individual section numbers.
This supplement brings the code up to date through Ordinance 1541,
passed November 8,1990.
