This chapter shall not apply to any person, firm or corporation or to any property as to whom or which, it is beyond the power of Council to impose the tax herein provided for. If any sentence, clause, section or part of this chapter, or any tax against or exemption 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 that this chapter would have been adopted had such unconstitutional, illegal or invalid sentence or part thereof not been included therein.
