may be numbered in accordance with the numbering system of this code and printed
for inclusion herein, or in the case of repealed chapters, sections and
subsections or any part thereof by subsequent ordinances, the repealed portions
may be excluded from the code by omission from reprinted pages affected thereby
and the subsequent ordinances as numbered and printed or omitted, in the case of
repeal, shall be prima facie evidence of the subsequent ordinances until the
time that this code of ordinances and subsequent ordinances numbered or omitted
are readopted as a new code of ordinances.
(b) Amendments to any of the provisions of this code may be
made by amending such provisions by specific reference to the section number of
this code in the following language:

desires to enact an ordinance of a general and permanent nature embracing a
subject not previously existing in the code, but which the city council desires
to incorporate into the code, a provision in substantially the following
language may be made a part of the ordinance: “It is the intention of the
city council, and it is hereby ordained, that the provisions of this ordinance
shall become and be made part of the Code of Ordinances of the City of Travelers
Rest, South Carolina, and the sections of this ordinance may be renumbered to
accomplish that intention.”
(e) All sections, articles, chapters or provisions desired to
be repealed must be specifically repealed by section, article or chapter number,
as the case may be.
(f) When necessary, sections and subsections to the code may
be renumbered by the official codifier for the city to fulfill the intent of the
governing body, but all such changes shall be approved in advance by the city
attorney. (Prior code 1-3-72)
