A separate agency history is available.

DESCRIPTION: In June 1976 the Junction town council adopted the Code of Revised Ordinances of the Town of Junction, which is a complete simplified code of all general or permanent city ordinances (Utah Code Unannotated, 1991, 10-3-707). Codified ordinances delineate the functions of town government, and define the responsibilities of both elected and appointed officials. In addition to statutory offices, Junction ordinances authorize a superintendent of streets, a chief of police, a pound keeper, a cemetery superintendent, a water superintendent, a fire chief, and a board of health. Junction ordinances define criminal activity and provide for punishments and fines. They contain statutes regulating business, water usage, and waste disposal, and they authorize taxation.

ARRANGEMENT: Ordinances are arranged by title, chapter, and part.

RESEARCH NOTE: The Junction town council adopted codified ordinances in June 1913. The location of this codification, and any others that may have been adopted, is unknown.
