City of North Sioux City Municipal Ordinance Code 2023
PREFACE
The code is organized by subject matter under an expandable three-factor decimal numbering system which is designed to facilitate supplementation without disturbing the numbering of existing provisions. Each section number designates, in sequence, the numbers of the title, chapter and section. Thus, Section 4.08.030 is Section .030, located in Chapter 4.08 of Title 4. In most instances, sections are numbered by tens (.010, .020, .030, etc), leaving nine vacant positions between original sections to accommodate future provisions. Similarly, chapters and titles are numbered to provide for internal expansion.
While the City makes every effort to keep its website updated, the ordinances listed on this site may not be the most current. The current list of ordinances is available for review at City Hall, during normal business hours.
