Municipal codes

When my copy of Law Library Journal arrives, the first thing I do is turn to Mary Whisner's "Practicing Reference" column. This issue is no different. Whisner writes about the importance of local or municipal codes in answering questions covering legalities on a local level. This column starts with a question about laws covering the scooping of, well, dog leavings.
