(a) Preparation authorized.--Council may prepare a consolidation or codification of the general body of city ordinances or the ordinances on a particular subject. Council may adopt the consolidation or codification as an ordinance of the city in the same manner prescribed for the adoption of an ordinance, except as follows:

(1) A consolidation or codification to be enacted as a single ordinance shall be introduced in council at least 30 days before its final enactment. At least 15 days before final enactment, notice of introduction of the consolidation or codification specifying the general nature and content shall be given, by advertisement, in a newspaper of general circulation.

(2) The required advertised notice of the proposed adoption of the consolidation or codification shall include:

(i) A listing of the table of contents.

(ii) A place within the city where a copy of the proposed consolidation or codification may be examined.

(b) Additional procedure.--The procedure for the consolidation or codification of city ordinances as a single ordinance may also be followed in enacting a complete group or body of ordinances repealing or amending existing ordinances as may be necessary in the course of preparing a consolidation or codification of the city ordinances. The advertisement giving notice of the proposed adoption shall list, in lieu of a table of contents, only the titles of each of the ordinances in the complete group or body of ordinances.

(c) Adoption by reference.--The consolidation or codification may contain provisions which will operate to adopt, by reference, a building, fire prevention or other standard or model code or zoning ordinance and zoning map in accordance with section 11018.13 (relating to standard or nationally recognized codes) and, if applicable, section 11018.14 (relating to maps, plans or drawings).
