[Adopted 8-17-2011 by Ord. No. O-2011-00010]
The Clerk of the Board of County Commissioners, County of Essex,
is hereby authorized pursuant to N.J.S.A. 40:41A-102 to implement
the necessary administrative processes and/or internal control corrections,
without retaining the services of an outside vendor, in order to eliminate
and/or prevent duplication of the numbering sequence for County resolutions
and County ordinances, which currently exists.
A.
The numbering
sequence shall be changed for all resolutions and ordinances previously
enacted by the Board and those enacted in the future, as follows:
R for resolutions, O for ordinances; the full year designation, i.e.,
1796, 1800, 1946, 2010; and then add the appropriate number of zeros
to the beginning of the existing resolution or ordinance number, if
needed, to make it a five-digit number, i.e., R-2010-00013, R-1949-00345,
O-1896-34578.
B.
The numbering
sequence of resolutions prior to 1900 that currently have no numbers
shall be changed as follows: R for resolutions, O for ordinances;
the full year designation, i.e., 1796, 1800, 1946, 2010; followed
by a chronological number sequence starting with 00001 for each year,
i.e., R-1722-00001.
This ordinance does not expressly and/or implicitly rescind,
nullify, supersede, amend or alter the content of previous County
resolutions and County ordinances duly enacted by the Board of County
Commissioners, County of Essex, subsequent years.
Upon adoption, the Clerk of the Board of County Commissioners
shall forward certified copies of this ordinance to all municipal
clerks within the County of Essex, the Commissioner Clerks of each
New Jersey county, the Essex County Court Administrator's office and
Trial Court Administrator, the Office of the Governor, the Office
of Archival Record Management, the New Jersey Attorney General's office,
all Constitutionals within Essex County, the New Jersey Historical
Society, and to be published in appropriate newspapers.
