§ 731.23.

When ordinances are revised, codified, rearranged, published in book form, and certified

as correct by the clerk of the legislative authority of a municipal corporation and

the mayor, such publication shall be a sufficient publication, and the ordinances

so published, under appropriate titles, chapters, and sections, shall be held the

same in law as though they had been published in accordance with section 731.21 of the Revised Code .  A new ordinance so published in book form, a summary of which has not been published

as required by sections 731.21 and 731.22 of the Revised Code , and which contains entirely new matter, shall be published as required by such sections.  If such revision or codification is made by a municipal corporation and contains

new matter, it shall be a sufficient publication of such codification, including the

new matter, to publish, in the manner required by such sections, a notice of the enactment

of such codifying ordinance, containing the title of the ordinance and a summary of

the new matters covered by it.  Such revision and codification may be made under appropriate titles, chapters, and

sections and in one ordinance containing one or more subjects. Except as provided by this section, a succinct summary of all ordinances, including

emergency ordinances, shall be published in accordance with section 731.21 of the Revised Code .
