The first ordinance deals with the establishment and regulation of the Health Department of the city, which is responsible for overseeing public health and safety. The second ordinance aims to regulate and suppress houses of ill-fame, which are establishments that provide prostitution services. The third ordinance concerns misdemeanors, which are minor criminal offenses that are punishable by fines or short-term imprisonment.
