The Township of Londonderry hereby adopts, for the purpose of

by any accumulative supplements, any additional amendments or supplements,
and any new editions which may from time to time be published by the
National Fire Protection Association, save and except such portion
as are hereinafter deleted, modified or amended, of which three copies
have been, will be and are now filed in the office of the Township
Secretary, and the same are hereby adopted and incorporated as if
fully set out at length herein. From the date on which this Part shall

[Ord. 91-2, 11/4/1991]
In all matters that are regulated by the laws of the Commonwealth
of Pennsylvania, or by regulations of departments or agencies of the
Commonwealth promulgated by authority of law, such laws or regulations,
as the case may be, shall control where the requirements thereof are
the same as or in excess of the provisions of this Part. The code
shall control in all cases where the State requirements are not as
strict as those contained in this Part.
[Ord. 91-2, 11/4/1991]
The provisions of this Part so far as they are the same as those
of ordinances and/or codes in force immediately prior to the enactment
of this Part, are intended as a continuation of such ordinances and
codes and not as new enactments. The provisions of this Part shall
not affect any act done or liability incurred, nor shall they affect
any suit or prosecution pending or to be instituted to enforce any
right or penalty or to punish any offense under the authority of any
of the repealed ordinances.
