Frederica council meets monthly as ordinances take effect upon adoption

The law requires Frederica’s Town Council to hold at least one regular meeting each month. This applies to the Town Council of Frederica. The council may hold additional regular or special meetings as allowed by law and its rules. If a holiday, weather, emergency, or other circumstance makes a meeting impractical, the council may cancel, postpone, recess, or reschedule it under applicable law.

An adopted ordinance takes effect immediately unless it specifies a later date. This applies to ordinances adopted under the Frederica town charter. This timing rule does not apply where the town charter provides otherwise. The ordinance takes effect upon adoption unless it names a later effective date.
