    PREFACE

    _______

    This volume, as originally published, constituted the first revision and codification of the general ordinances of Isle of Wight County, Virginia. It contained such of the ordinances of a general and permanent nature passed on or before January 5, 1978, as were found desirable for retention, except those expressly saved from repeal by the Adopting Ordinance.

    This Code, as now supplemented, contains ordinances adopted on or before the date shown on the instruction page for handling supplemental pages to this volume.

    The ordinances were codified, edited and indexed by the Editorial Staff of The Michie Company under the supervision of Christopher C. Hudson, Jr., and Mary Ann Buckley.

    The publishers wish to express their appreciation for the cooperation of all the county officials and employees during the preparation of this publication. Particular acknowledgment is due Mr. A. L. Jones, County Attorney, and Mr. H. Woodrow Crook, Jr., County Commonwealth's Attorney, for their assistance during the progress of the work.

    A feature to which the attention of the user is directed is the arrangement of the chapters in alphabetical order. Attention is also directed to the analysis preceding each chapter which, in many instances, will serve as an index within itself. The general index, carried at the end of the Code, has been carefully prepared, and should serve as an accurate medium for locating the individual sections of law within the Code. In the footnotes appearing throughout the Code will be found references to related provisions of state law. These notes also contain cross references to other and related provisions in the County Code itself. By reference to the historical citations, appearing at the end of each section, the user will be able to ascertain the ordinance from which the present section has been derived.

    It is a recognized fact that if any Code is to accomplish its intended purpose it must be kept up to date by means of an adequate supplemental service. Accordingly, the publishers point out the advisability and necessity of keeping this Code current.

    Isle of Wight County Code

    The new County Code is presented to the officials and citizens of Isle of Wight County, Virginia, in the belief that it will merit their approval.
