The municipality may from time to time authorize the revision and codification of the ordinances, and their publication in pamphlet or book form. When so revised, arranged, classified and codified, said book or pamphlet may be adopted by ordinance as the official code of ordinances of the municipality without compliance with the requirements pertaining to the passage of ordinances. Such official code of ordinances may be amended by section or sections in the manner provided in this chapter. The municipality may cause to be published in connection therewith the laws relating to municipalities, with such annotations of supreme court decisions thereon as may be proper, and such forms and instructions as it shall deem advisable. The whole may be preceded by a historical sketch of the municipality.
