Metamora — Title 15 Ch. 15.06 Property Maintenance Code § 15.06.035
Resolution of inconsistencies
Operative Text
In the event of any inconsistency between the Maintenance Code and any provision of the Metamora Municipal Code, 2003, the terms and conditions of the Metamora Municipal Code. 2003 shall apply in lieu of the conflicting provisions of the Maintenance Code.
Section 15.06.035 of Metamora's Property Maintenance Code establishes a hierarchy between two sets of local rules: when the Property Maintenance Code conflicts with the broader Metamora Municipal Code (2003), the Municipal Code takes precedence and the conflicting Maintenance Code provision is set aside. This rule does not eliminate the Maintenance Code; it simply determines which document controls when the two cannot be reconciled. The provision functions as a tiebreaker, ensuring the Municipal Code remains the authoritative baseline for property-related requirements in Metamora.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 15.06.035, property owners and managers operating in Metamora should be aware that compliance obligations may be drawn from two overlapping documents — the Property Maintenance Code and the Metamora Municipal Code (2003). When a requirement in the Maintenance Code appears to conflict with the Municipal Code, compliant operators generally look to the Municipal Code as the governing standard. Reviewing both documents together, rather than relying on the Maintenance Code alone, is the approach consistent with how this provision structures local authority.

Section 15.06.035 means that tenants researching housing standards in Metamora may need to consult both the Property Maintenance Code and the Metamora Municipal Code (2003) to understand which rule actually applies to a given condition. If a landlord cites the Maintenance Code in a dispute, this provision establishes that the Municipal Code controls wherever the two conflict. Tenants who believe a housing standard is being misapplied can contact local municipal offices or a tenant-rights organization for guidance on which code governs their situation.
