(a) A person is subject to prosecution in Municipal Court for a violation committed through the conduct of such person or through the conduct of another for whom such person is legally accountable, if:

(1) The conduct constitutes a violation and is committed either wholly or partly within the Town;

(2) The conduct outside the Town constitutes an attempt, as defined by this Chapter, to commit a violation within the Town;

(3) The conduct outside the Town constitutes a conspiracy to commit a violation within the Town, and an act in furtherance of the conspiracy occurs in the Town; or

(4) The conduct within the Town constitutes an attempt, solicitation or conspiracy to commit in another jurisdiction a violation prohibited under the laws of the Town and such other jurisdiction.

(b) Whether a violator is in or outside the Town is immaterial to the commission of a violation based on an omission to perform a duty imposed by the law of the Town.

(c) Town, as used in this Chapter and in any summons, summons and complaint or complaint alleging a violation of the Code or any ordinance, includes both the area within the territorial limits of the Town of Frederick, Colorado, and also those areas over which extraterritorial police power has been granted by the statutes of this State. It is the intent of the Board of Trustees to extend the territorial jurisdiction of the Municipal Court as widely as possible. However, where specific sections of this Chapter require that the violation occur "within the Town," then the offense is limited to the territorial limits of the Town. (Ord. 303 § 1-105, 1977)
