Scope and Content
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.
