               All ordinances passed subsequent to adoption of this Code which amend, repeal or in
               any way affect this Code may be numbered in accordance with the numbering system of
               this Code and printed for inclusion in this Code. When subsequent ordinances repeal
               any chapter, section or subsection or any portion of a chapter, section or subsection,
               such repealed portions may be excluded from this Code by omission from reprinted pages.
               The subsequent ordinances as numbered and printed, or omitted in the case of repeal,
               shall be prima facie evidence of such subsequent ordinances until such time that this
               Code and subsequent ordinances numbered or omitted are readopted as a new code by
               the board of commissioners.
