Throughout this title, there are numerous references to the town of Clyde Hill. By virtue of the town having changed its form of government, and having become an optional municipal code city with a mayor/council form of government, the codifier for the city is hereby authorized and directed to change all references to the term “town” contained in this title to the term “city.” Wherever the word town appears in this title, it shall mean the city of Clyde Hill.
