| | | | | | | | Background/Discussion
The Council Bluffs Municipal Code relating to the Council Bluffs Civil Rights Commission has always been modeled, essentially word for word, from the Iowa Code. It has been some time since City’s code has been reviewed for and updated with respect to the Iowa Code. While there have not been many substantive changes, there have been some additions and clarifications in the Iowa Code that merit an update of our Municipal Code. These changes are designed to accomplish that, and they are taken verbatim from the Iowa Code in order to avoid inconsistency or confusion. |
