[New]
Each section of the Code and every part of a section is an independent
section, subsection or paragraph. If any chapter, section, subsection
or paragraph of this Code shall be declared to be unconstitutional,
invalid or inoperative, in whole or in part, by a court of competent
jurisdiction, such chapter, section, subsection or paragraph shall,
to the extent that it is not unconstitutional, invalid or inoperative,
remain in full force and effect, and no such determination shall be
deemed to invalidate the remaining chapters, sections, subsections
or paragraphs of this Code.
[New]
The provisions of this Code, so far as they are in substance
the same as those ordinances existing on the effective date of this
Code, shall be considered as continuations thereof and not as new
enactments.
