If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, term, provision, condition, covenant or portion of this chapter is for any reason held to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, or superseded by state or federal legislation, rules, regulations or decision, the remainder of this chapter shall not be affected but shall be deemed as a separate, distinct and independent provision, and such holding shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions, and each remaining section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase, provision, condition, covenant and portion of this chapter shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law.
In the event that federal or state laws, rules or regulations preempt a provision or limit the enforceability of a provision of this chapter, then the provision shall be read to be preempted to the extent and or the time required by law. In the event such federal or state law, rules or regulation is subsequently repealed, rescinded, amended or otherwise changed so that the provision that had been preempted is no longer preempted, such provision shall return to full force and effect, and shall be binding, without the requirement of further action on the part of the city.
