                 Any and all ordinances and resolutions, rules, regulations, policies or provisions in conflict with the provisions of this Ordinance are hereby
                 repealed and rescinded to the extent of conflict therewith.

                 severable, and if any phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph or section of this ordinance 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 of this ordinance, since the same would have been enacted by the City without the incorporation in this ordinance of
                 any such unconstitutional phrase, clause, sentence, paragraph or section.
