10-28-192  Severability.
   The provisions of Sections 10-28-130 through 10-28-192 are severable. If any section, clause, provision, portion or application of those sections is determined by any court to be invalid for any reason, the validity of the remaining sections, clauses, provisions or portions, and their application to other circumstances, shall not be affected thereby. It is the intention of the city council that those sections would have been enacted by the city council regardless of the invalid sections, clauses, provisions, portions or applications.
