§ 12L.8. SEVERABILITY.  


Latest version.
  • This Chapter shall be construed so as not to conflict with applicable federal or State laws, rules or regulations. Nothing in this Chapter shall authorize any City agency or department to impose any duties or obligations in conflict with limitations on municipal authority established by State or federal law at the time such agency or department action is taken.
    In the event that a court or agency of competent jurisdiction holds that State or federal law invalidates any clause, sentence, paragraph or section of this Chapter or the application thereof to any person, or circumstances, it is the intent of the Board of Supervisors that the court or agency sever such clause, sentence, paragraph or section so that the remainder of this Chapter shall remain in effect.
