If any clause, sentence, paragraph, section, Article or part of this article or of any local law or ordinance cited in the table in § 1-2 hereof shall be adjudged by any court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, such judgment shall not affect, impair or invalidate the remainder thereof, but shall be confined in its operation to the clause, sentence, paragraph, section, Article or part thereof directly involved in the controversy in which such judgment shall have been rendered.
A copy of the Code in loose-leaf form, has been filed in the office of the Town Clerk of the Town of Southold and shall remain there for the use and examination of the public until final action is taken on this local law, and, if this local law shall be adopted, such copy shall be certified to by the Town Clerk of the Town of Southold by impressing thereon the seal of the Town of Southold, and such certified copy shall remain on file in the office of said Town Clerk to be made available to persons desiring to examine the same during all times while the said Code is in effect.

All changes in said Code and all local laws, ordinances and resolutions adopted by the Town Board subsequent to the enactment of this article in such form as to indicate the intention of said Town Board to be a part of said Code shall, when finally enacted or adopted, be included therein by temporary attachment of copies of such changes or local laws, ordinances or resolutions until such change or local laws, ordinances or resolutions are printed as supplements to said Code book, at which time such supplements shall be inserted therein.

Any person who, without authorization from the Town Clerk, changes or amends, by additions or deletions, any part or portion of the "Code of the Town of Southold," or who alters or tampers with such Code in any manner whatsoever which will cause the legislation of the Town of Southold to be misrepresented thereby, or who violates any other provision of this local law shall be guilty of an offense and shall, upon conviction thereof, be subject to a fine of not more than $250 or imprisonment for a term of not more than 15 days, or both.

In compiling and preparing the legislation and 1973 Code for publication as the 2006 Code of the Town of Southold, no changes in the meaning or intent of such ordinances have been made. Certain grammatical changes and other minor nonsubstantive changes were made in one or more of said pieces of legislation. Chapters, articles and sections have been renumbered pursuant to the table in § 1-14, including all internal references and cross-references. It is the intention of the Town Board that all such changes be adopted as part of the Code as if the ordinances had been previously formally amended to read as such.
A. 
The provisions of the Code, insofar as they are substantively the same as those of local laws, ordinances and resolutions in force immediately prior to the enactment of the Code by this local law, are intended as a continuation of such local laws, ordinances and resolutions and not as new enactments, and the effectiveness of such provisions shall date from the date of adoption of the prior local law, ordinance or resolution. All such provisions are hereby continued in full force and effect and are hereby reaffirmed as to their adoption by the Town Board of the Town of Southold, and it is the intention of said Board that each such provision contained within the Code is hereby reaffirmed as it appears in said Code.
B. 
For purposes of transition from the 1973 Code to this Code, any reference to a chapter or section number from the 1973 Code on or in any form, license, permit, ticket or other Town document shall be deemed to refer to the corresponding chapter or section in this Code until such form, license, permit, ticket or other Town document is revised or reprinted to refer to the numbering in this Code.
The provisions of this local law are hereby made Article II of Chapter 1 of the Code of the Town of Southold, such local law to be entitled "General Provisions, Article II, Adoption of Renumbered 2006 Code," and the sections of this local law shall be numbered §§ 1-14 to 1-18, inclusive.
This local law shall take effect immediately upon filing with the Secretary of State of the State of New York.
