               By contract or by county personnel, supplements to this Code shall be prepared on
               an annual basis. A supplement to the Code shall include all substantive, permanent
               and general parts of ordinances passed by the board of commissioners during the period
               covered by the supplement and all changes made by the supplement in the Code. The
               pages of a supplement shall be so numbered that they will fit properly into the Code
               and will, where necessary, replace pages which have become obsolete or partially obsolete;
               and the new pages shall be so prepared that, when they have been inserted, the Code
               will be current through the date of the adoption of the latest ordinance included
               in the supplement.

               When preparing a supplement to this Code, the codifier (meaning the person, agency
               or organization authorized to prepare the supplement) may make formal, nonsubstantive
               changes in ordinances and parts of ordinances included in the supplement, insofar
               as it is necessary to do so to embody them into a unified code. For example, the codifier
               may:

               Provide appropriate catchlines, headings and titles for sections and other subdivisions
               of the Code printed in the supplement and make changes in such catchlines, headings
               and titles.

               Assign appropriate numbers to sections and other subdivisions to be inserted in the

               _____" (inserting section numbers to indicate the sections of the Code which embody
               the substantive sections of the ordinance incorporated into the Code).

               in the meaning or effect of ordinance material included in the supplement or already
               embodied in the Code.
