This chapter shall not apply to any person, firm, corporation, or to any property as to whom or which it is beyond the power of the City to impose the tax herein provided. If any sentence, clause, section, or part of this chapter, or any tax against any individual or any of the several groups specified herein, is found to be unconstitutional, illegal, or invalid, such finding of unconstitutionality, illegality, or invalidity shall affect only such sentence, clause, section, or part of this chapter and shall not affect or impair any of the remaining provisions, sentences, clauses, sections, or other parts of this chapter. It is hereby declared to be the intention of the Council of the City that this chapter would have been adopted had such unconstitutional, illegal, or invalid sentence, clause, section, or part thereof not been included herein.
