A. It is the intention of the city council that the sections, paragraphs, sentences, clauses and phrases of this code are severable, and if any phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph or section of this code is declared unconstitutional by the valid judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction, such unconstitutionality shall not affect any of the remaining phrases, clauses, sentences, paragraphs and sections of this code, since the same would have been enacted by the city council without the incorporation in this code of any such unconstitutional phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph or section.
B. If any provision of this code or the application thereof to any person, fact, situation or circumstance is held invalid, the remainder of this code and the application of such provision to other persons, facts, situations or circumstances shall not be affected thereby. (1991 Code § 1-9)
