§ 5.64.080. Prior badges—Recognition, continuation and replacement.

A.

It is the intent of the ordinance codified in this chapter that existing badges be replaced by the uniform departmental badge excepting where specific exemptions have been made elsewhere in this chapter as the purchase of new badges becomes necessary.

B.

Badges duly authorized as official badges in conformity with the provisions of Ordinance 1389 entitled "An ordinance providing for badges," adopted April 5, 1926, or the provisions of Ordinance 5368 entitled "An ordinance providing for County badges and repealing Ordinance No. 1389," adopted July 26, 1949, or any other ordinance providing for county badges at the time such badges were issued, will continue to be so recognized until their ultimate replacement by the uniform badge.

C.

The adoption of a County Seal or change therein shall not prohibit the continued use of those other badges lawfully in use by employees of the various departments as of the effective date of such adoption or change.
