When the city moves, where do the rights stay

Civilisational assumption
The people, events, figures, and contract terms are a synthetic premise. They are not statements of real cases or of current law. The source documents are the roots of the background and the norms and do not establish the premises of the scenario.
The question to decide
Suppose a city where buildings and residents move together. Carrying addresses and contracts with the community preserves life records but may clash with the rules of the regions it passes through; following location means changing contracts at every move. Should the standard for residence and contract follow the city, fit wherever it stays, or attach to the individual?

- Premise 1The assumed city moves together with its component structures and residents, and stays in each place for a long period.
- Premise 2If the address is attached to the community, the records continue, but they may conflict with the spatial rules of the area of stay.
