RE: CORRECTION OF TYPOGRAPHICAL ERROR IN MUNICIPAL CODE
In the Azusa Municipal Code, Section 18-706, subsection (a), there is a
typographical error regarding the amount of the license tax. The code currently reads: "...up to a
maximum of $0.035 per ton..." The correct amount should be $0.35 per ton, or 35 cents per ton.
In order to correct the typographical error in the tax amount, we have prepared a letter to the
Book Publishing Company asking that it make the necessary correction. The error may be
corrected without a formal amendment of the ordinance, pursuant to Government Code Section
36934, which permits corrections of typographical errors.
Please review the attached letter and notify us if it is acceptable. At your
instruction, we will forward the letter to the R@ek4kiWi&h4ig-Cow4vA%which maintains Azusa's
Municipal Code.
