(a) Except as provided in Section 3013(b), if any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, or word of this Article 30, or the application thereof to any person or circumstance, is for any reason held to be invalid or unconstitutional by a decision of any court of competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Article, including the application of such portions to other persons or circumstances. The People of the City and County of San Francisco hereby declare that, except as provided in Section 3013(b), they would have adopted each section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, and word of this Article not declared invalid or unconstitutional without regard to whether any other portion of this Article would be subsequently declared invalid or unconstitutional.
(b) If the imposition of the Cannabis Business Tax in Section 3003 is held in its entirety to be facially invalid or unconstitutional in a final court determination, the remainder of this Article 30 shall be void and of no force and effect, and the City Attorney shall cause it to be removed from the Business and Tax Regulations Code.
