Official municipal law is enacted by the Town of Akron through the introduction & passage of ordinances.
An ordinance serves as the most formal type of action a municipal governing body can take. Unless a special emergency exists an ordinance is read at two regular meetings of the Town Council. The ordinance cannot go into effect until after a second reading & approval by Town Council.
Ordinances will be codified within the Akron Municipal Code throughout the year. Below are the ordinances that have been recently read by the Akron Town Council & their status. These ordinances have NOT been codified to the Akron Municipal Code.
