(1) Upon the successful passage of the question to consolidate a city of the first class and its county, all ordinances and resolutions of the previously existing city of the <br>first class and all ordinances and resolutions of the county shall become effective <br>ordinances and resolutions of the consolidated local government until repealed, <br>modified, or amended in accordance with the following order of precedence: <br>(a) If a city ordinance conflicts with a county ordinance, the county ordinance shall prevail and shall become effective countywide; and (b) If a city ordinance addresses a subject matter not addressed by a county ordinance, the city ordinance shall become effective countywide; and (c) If a county ordinance addresses a subject matter not addressed by a city ordinance, the county ordinance shall become effective countywide. Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this subsection and in the event a uniform land <br>development code has not been jointly adopted by the city and county prior to the <br>effective date of a consolidated local government, the historic preservation and <br>landmarks ordinances, and the zoning regulations of the city adopted pursuant to <br>KRS Chapter 100, shall prevail and become effective countywide.

Except as provided in KRS <br>67C.123(3), any ordinance, resolution, or order in effect in a city of the first class or <br>its county on the date a consolidated local government takes effect shall expire five <br>(5) years from that date unless amended or reenacted by the consolidated local <br>government. (3) All ordinances of the city and county creating agencies and boards and interlocal agreements shall survive and be deemed reenacted by the council. All members may <br>serve the balance of the terms to which they were appointed and until their <br>successors are appointed and duly qualified according to law. (4) For purposes of this section, a conflict shall be deemed to exist between ordinances or resolutions, or the provisions of this chapter, where any rights, remedies, <br>entitlements, or the enforcement thereof cannot reasonably be reconciled.

(6) Wherever the words &quot;county judge&quot; or &quot;county judge/executive&quot; appear in any resolution or ordinance in existence in a city of the first class or in a county <br>containing a city of the first class as of the effective date of the establishment of a <br>consolidated local government, they shall be deemed to mean the mayor of the <br>consolidated local government.
