SECTION IX

                 There is hereby levied and ordered collected an annual occupation tax of twenty-five (25) percent on the State occupational tax on each and
                 every occupation subject to an occupational tax under the laws of the State of Texas.

                                                                             SECTION X

                 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                 repealed and rescinded to the extent of conflict therewith.

                                                                             SECTION XI

                 It is hereby declared to be the intention of the City Council that the phrases, clauses, sentences, paragraphs and sections of this ordinance are
                 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.

                                                                            SECTION XII

                 The necessity of affixing and levying municipal ad valorem taxes of the City for the next fiscal year as required by the laws of the State of
                 Texas requires that this Ordinance shall take effect immediately from and after its passage, and it is accordingly so ordained.

                                                                                                                           th
