[Adopted 8-4-2020 by Bill No. 2020-1]
The provisions of any mutual aid agreement authorized under
this Article are declared to be severable. If any section, subsection,
sentence, clause, phrase, or portion of such agreements are for any
reason held invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent
jurisdiction, the same shall be deemed separate, distinct, and independent
from, and such holding shall not affect the validity of, the remaining
portions of such agreements, it being the intent of the County that
any agreement authorized under this Article shall stand, notwithstanding
the invalidity of any section, subsection, sentence, clause, phrase,
or portion hereof.
