This Charter may be amended at any time, or
a new Charter adopted in the manner provided by the Constitution.
Should two (2) or more amendments adopted at the same election have
conflicting provisions, the one receiving the largest affirmative
vote shall prevail. The sections of any amendments in addition to
this Charter shall be numbered by the Town Clerk and inserted in their
appropriate places or added to the Charter.
It shall not be necessary for the full text
of a charter or amendments to a charter to be printed upon the ballot.
Any digest or description thereof or any question or statement which
substantially expresses the purpose or identifies the subject matter
to be voted upon shall be sufficient. When any question is to be submitted
to the voters, the Council shall approve the statement of the question
as it shall appear upon the ballot.
If any section or part of a section of this
Charter shall be held invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction,
such holding shall not affect the remainder of this Charter, nor the
context in which such section or part of section so held invalid may
appear, except to the extent that an entire section or part of section
may be inseparably connected in meaning and effect with the section
or part of section to which such holdings shall directly apply; and
if any section or part of section concerned with election procedures
shall be held invalid by such court, the pertinent election procedures
set forth in the Laws of the State of Rhode Island shall apply.
