§ 1.9. SEPARABILITY

If any provision, clause, sentence, paragraph, section, or part of this development code, or application thereof to any person, firm, corporation, public agency or circumstances, is, for any reason, adjudged by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unconstitutional or invalid, said judgment will not affect, impair or invalidate the remainder of this development code and the application of such provision to other persons, firms, corporations, public agencies, or circumstances, but will be confined in its operation to the provision, clause, sentence, paragraph, section, or part thereof directly involved in the controversy that was the subject of the judgment and to the person, firm, corporation, public agency, or circumstances involved. It is the legislative intent of the City Council that this development code would have been adopted had such unconstitutional or invalid provision, clause, sentence, paragraph, section or part not been included.
