Do city ordinances affect prior misdemenors?

  1. Okay this is a follow up to a post i made last night. see that for the whole story.

    Anyway last night OPS (on campus cops, but they are legit cops and all that) comes to my buddies room says it smells like pot.

    He searches us and finds a pipe in my jacket. And writes me a ticket and I have a court date.

    He said it isn't a misdemenor, but rather a City Ordinance (which i hear is just like a bad speeding ticket). I know standard penalty for this is like 750 fine and maybe supervision.
    However, I have been arrested in my home town before (not where i go to college).
    I may still be on supervision from that arreest, and was wondering if a city ordiance can affect a misdemenor (drinking and weed) arrest that I got before.
    Thanks
