Plain English: what this chapter covers
Chapter 2 covers how city government runs: when the council meets and how residents can speak, the ethics code and how to file a complaint, rules for city employees (including drug testing and the city minimum wage), budgeting and purchasing limits, city credit cards, the Community Relations Commission, and how the city protects utility customers' personal information.
The following departments are created for the city:
(1) Police;
(2) Fire;
(3) Water;
(4) Sewer;
(5) Gas;
(6) Streets and sanitation;
(7) E-911; and
(8) Recreation.
This is a plain-English guide, not legal advice. The official code is on Municode and at City Hall. Our copy is from April 30, 2026.
