1.4. APPLICABILITY AND JURISDICTION

This Code applies to all land, buildings, structures, and uses thereof located within Sacramento County outside of incorporated municipalities, unless an exemption is provided by or pursuant to the terms of this Code.

To the extent allowed by law, the provisions of this Code shall apply to all land, buildings, structures, and uses owned, leased, or otherwise controlled by any municipal, district, county, state, or federal government agencies in Sacramento County. Where the provisions of this Code do not legally control such land, buildings, structures, and uses, such agencies are encouraged to meet the provisions of this Code.

The provisions of this Code, insofar as they are substantially the same as previously existing ordinance provisions relating to the same subject matter, shall be construed as restatements and continuations thereof and not new enactments. Any actions or proceedings commenced or permits issued pursuant to any previously existing ordinance shall not be affected by the enactment of this Code; but such actions, proceedings, and permits shall hereafter conform to this Code.
