Under the authority conferred by Article 23A, Section 2A(A)(3) of the Annotated Code of Maryland, the City of Frederick, effective January 1, 1984, exempts itself from the provisions of all laws of Frederick County enacted before or after that date and dealing with matters in which the city is lawfully empowered by state law or its own charter to act. The only laws of Frederick County which will henceforth apply within the City of Frederick are those defined by Maryland law to apply and those which have been expressly adopted by reference by the city. This exemption shall not prevent the City of Frederick from reaching mutual agreement with Frederick County for the enforcement of specific laws of the county or city by county officials or their agents. (Ord. No. G-83-39, § 1, 12-8-83)
