No. 60-00 in October 2000, does not create a separate 'public use' offense; it governs possession generally, including possession discovered in public places, streets, or vehicles within the city, by giving Warner Robins its own local charging track for the smallest quantities instead of relying solely on the county solicitor and state court system. Because the resulting conviction is treated as an ordinary city ordinance violation, it draws the same penalty range as other Code offenses under the general penalty section, Sec. 1-7, rather than the felony or state-misdemeanor exposure that can apply to larger quantities charged under state law.
