Peachtree

City's massive collection of codes and ordinances is now

as close as your personal computer and Internet hookup.

The city

has recently recodified its ordinances, with the final

approval of the process expected to come at Thursday's

City Council meeting. But citizens can now view them by

clicking on a new link from the city's web site, found at

https://www.peachtree-city.org/ordinanc.htm .

The

Municipal Code Corporation, which compiles the city's

code books, is responsible for actually putting the

information on line at its own site. But it can be seen

without leaving the Peachtree City web site.

The city

has not had much time to get the word out yet about the

new service, although some people have come across it in

their usual Web surfing, according to Betsy Tyler, the

city's public information specialist.

Because of

that, it's far too soon to tell how much it will cut down

on citizens having to come to City Hall or the library

next door to physically view the code books.

"It's

just one more way of making it accessible to

people," said Tyler.

Another

recent feature of the city's web site is a summary of the

proposed FY2000 budget, which can be accessed directly

from the home page. Comparisons can be made with the

current budget, which is also on the site.
