SECTION 6.16 CODIFICATION OF ORDINANCES.
   The Commission shall have all general Ordinances of the City compiled and printed in code form; the Commission is empowered to thereafter recodify said general Ordinances as may be deemed necessary, from time to time. For the purpose of this Section, general Ordinances shall be deemed to be those Ordinances of a permanent or continuing nature which affect the residents of the City at Large. Every general Ordinance enacted subsequent to the original codification provided for above, shall be enacted as an amendment to the Code. When adopted by the Commission, the printed codes of general Ordinances contemplated by this Section shall be in full force and effect without the necessity for such codes or any part thereof being published in any newspapers. An Ordinance of the City of Port Isabel may be proved prima facie by a printed code of ordinances purporting to be printed by authority of the City, or by copy of the Ordinance certified by the City Secretary to be a true copy, of the same or by the City Secretary's official record thereof.
