The first ordinance referred to in this paragraph shall <br>include, if applicable, any ordinance of a city, county or other municipality existing prior <br>to the adoption of the urban-county form of government which is adopted by the urban-<br>county government for any period of time by its comprehensive plan or ordinance.
