The Municipal Code of Chicago is the codification of local ordinances of a general and permanent nature of the City of Chicago.[1] The Code contains original and new ordinances, adopted by the Chicago City Council, organized into eighteen titles of varying subject matter.[2] The first Code of Chicago was adopted in 1837.[3] The current Code, adopted 28 February 1990, wholly replaced and renumbered the previous Code adopted 30 August 1939.[3][4] It is the responsibility of the City Clerk of Chicago to maintain a current copy of the Code,[5] and revisions to the Code must be published at least every six months.[6]
Building, Electrical, Fire Prevention, and Zoning Codes are contained within the Municipal Code and are published as separate volumes.[3]
