Comment: A new section 7 has been added to the ordinance, providing that violation of the ordinance is not a misdemeanor. This section is deemed necessary because the Municipal Code contains a general provision to the effect that the violation of any ordinance is a mis- demeanor. Thus, to avoid the application of the general ordinance, it is necessary to affirmatively state that violation of this ordin- ance is not a misdemeanor. The Legal Department recommends' that the Council should begin with the first consideration of this ordinance. /h Action: / ( u Item No. 27 - ADJOURNMENT. '. 4.
