FOREWORD
History
This comprises the codification of the Ordinances of the City of Lock Haven. The City
was laid out as a town in 1833, incorporated as a borough on April 25, 1840 and incorporated
as a third class city on March 28, 1870.
The Code of Ordinances of the City of Lock Haven was prepared by Penns Valley
Publishers, a division of Fry Communications, Inc., and adopted by City Council on February
24, 2003, by Ordinance Number 670.
Organization
The Code contains four parts which are (1) the valid current ordinances of the City of
Lock Haven contained in Chapters 1 through 27, (2) the Appendix, which lists by abstracted
title all ordinances of a temporary or "one time" nature, (3) the Key to the disposition of each
ordinance ever enacted by the City, and (4) the Index, which is an alphabetical arrangement
of subjects.
In the Code each Chapter is separated by a divider tab, and specific ordinances can be
located by subject on the contents page at the beginning of each Chapter. The Index may also
be used to search for a subject when one is looking for general information on a particular
subject, or if it is not known in which Chapter the subject might be found. The Appendix
consists of several general categories containing a chronological listing of short subject
descriptions along with a reference to the original ordinance and its date of enactment, if
known.
The Key to disposition indicates what action has been taken by City Council with regard
to every ordinance ever enacted. An ordinance has either been (1) specifically repealed, (2)
superseded by another ordinance, (3) is located in a Chapter of the Code book, or (4) is located
in the Appendix. Annual tax rate and budget ordinances are located only in the Key. The Key
is a cross reference to the original ordinance books of the City, and to the location within the
Code of each ordinance by number.
