Code reviser's note: Ordinances 5423 and 5429, adopted simultaneously to implement the County's sustainability policy and regulatory update of 2022, both adopt amendments affecting SCCC § 13.10.150 through § 13.10.170. The code reflects the County's intent to leave those sections in place as amended by Ordinance 5423, rather than relocating them to SCCC § 18.40.020 through § 18.40.040 as provided by Ordinance 5429. See County for more information.
