(1) Severability.
(a) Every section, provision or part of this chapter or any permit issued pursuant to this chapter is declared separable from every other section, provision or part thereof to the extent that if any section, provision or part of this chapter or any permit issued pursuant to this chapter shall be held invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, it shall not invalidate any other section, provision or part thereof.
(b) If any court of competent jurisdiction shall judge invalid the application of any provision of this chapter to a particular property, building or structure, the judgment shall not affect other properties, buildings or structures.
(2) Supremacy.
(a) When any condition imposed by a provision of this chapter on the use of land or building or on the bulk of buildings is either more restrictive or less restrictive than similar conditions imposed by any provision of any other city ordinance or regulation, the more restrictive conditions shall prevail.
(b) This chapter is not intended to abrogate any easements, restrictions or covenants relating to the use of land within the city by private declaration or agreement, but where the provisions of this chapter are more restrictive than any easement, restriction or covenant, or the provision of any private agreement, the provisions of this chapter shall prevail.
