181.17 SAVING CLAUSE.
   This chapter shall be construed so as to maximize the amount of tax which is applicable and payable, consistent with the provisions of Chapter 718 of the Ohio Revised Code as it may, from time to time be amended. Nevertheless, 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 Council to impose the tax herein provided for. Any sentence, clause, section or part of this Chapter, or any tax against or exception granted any individual or any of the several groups of persons, or forms of income specified herein is found to be unconstitutional or illegal or invalid, such unconstitutionality, illegality or invalidity shall affect only such clause, sentence, 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 Council of the Municipality that this chapter would have been adopted had such unconstitutional, illegal or invalid sentence or part thereof, not been included therein.
