§ 571-3. Continuation of existing provisions.

The provisions of the Code, insofar as they are substantively the same as those of the regulations in force immediately prior to the adoption of the codified regulations, are intended as a continuation of such regulations and not as new enactments, and the effectiveness of such provisions shall date from the date of adoption of the prior regulation. All such provisions are hereby continued in full force and effect and are hereby reaffirmed as to their adoption by the Board of Health, and it is the intention of said Board of Health that each such provision contained within the Code is hereby reaffirmed as it appears in said Code.
