How long will an ordinance violation of possession of marijuana stay on an individuals record?

an ordinance violation is not a criminal charge, if you have a criminal record, that possession violation wont be on there. pay your fine and that's the end of it, itll show up if someone searches your name on the circuit court website but that's it. no criminal record, therefore if a job application or anything asks if you've been charged with a criminal offense, you can still put no assuming you havent done anything else
