It is hereby declared to be the intention of the City Council that the sections, paragraphs, sentences, clauses and phrases of this Ordinance hereby adopted are severable and if any phrase, clause, sentence, or section shall be declared unconstitutional by the valid judgment or decree of any court of competent jurisdiction. Such unconstitutionality shall not affect any of the remaining phrases, clauses, sentences, paragraphs, and sections, since the same would have been enacted by the City Council without the incorporation of any unconstitutional phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph, or section.

This Ordinance shall take effect immediately from and after its passage and the publications of the caption as the law in such cases provides.
