All ordinances or parts of ordinances inconsistent with or contrary to the provisions of this ordinance are hereby repealed to the extent necessary to give this ordinance full force and effect.

Specifically, this ordinance replaces Chapter 19 of the Laws and Ordinances of the City of Old Town of 1961 and Chapter 20 of the Laws and Ordinances of the City of Old Town of 1957, which are hereby repealed except that they shall remain in full force for the trial and punishment of all past violations of them and for the recovery of penalties and forfeitures already incurred.

The regulations of this ordinance shall be held to be the minimum requirements for the promotion of the public health, safety and general welfare provided, however, that where this ordinance is found to be in conflict with any other lawfully adopted ordinances, codes, covenants or regulations, the provision which imposes the higher standard or is the more restrictive shall prevail.
