There have also been a number of new State laws requiring the addition of new OMC provisions. At the same time, a number of OMC provisions have been added and revised to reflect changed City policies. Not all of the changes in the OMC have been captured throughout the remaining OMC provisions, resulting in several code sections that still contain outdated, superseded, or changed references. In addition, there are several OMC provisions needing clerical revisions.
