City Code Section
- The provisions of this Chapter are severable, and it is the intention to confer the whole or any part of the powers provided by those provisions. If any word, definition, clause, section or provision of this Chapter is declared unconstitutional or invalid for any reason or cause, the remaining portion of this Chapter will be in full force and effect and be valid as if such invalid portion thereof had not been incorporated in it. In the event a definition is held to be invalid or is severed, the defined word or term must be deemed to have the meaning given to that word or term under Oregon law if Oregon law contains such a definition. If there is no established definition of the word or term under Oregon law, the word or term will have its ordinary dictionary meaning. It is declared to be the Council’s express legislative intent that this Chapter would have been adopted had such an unconstitutional or otherwise invalid provision not been included in it.
