A friend just posted something about getting rid of one item a day. This reminded me of Pasadena Ordinance No. 5512 (as printed in the Pasadena Star News, 8 May 1981): AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY OF PASADENA RELATING TO THE ADOPTION AND REPEAL OF CITY ORDINANCES WHEREAS. Between May 7, 1973, and May 4 1981, 400 ordinances have been adopted and 241 have been repealed by the Board of Directors of the City of Pasadena, thereby adding 159 new and additional regulations; and WHEREAS. in one heroic effort the Board of Directors adopted in 1974 Ordinance No. 5165 repealing 203 ordinances at one time; and WHEREAS. the City of Pasadena and its bureaucracy will die from the weight of its own excessiveness in law and regulation unless curative measures are instituted immediately: NOW, THEREFORE, the People of the City of Pasadena ordain as follows: SECTION 1. No ordinance of the City of Pasadena shall take effect unless the ordinance repeals two or more ordinances of the City of Pasadena. SECTION 2.
