A. The provisions of this chapter shall be interpreted to be consistent with applicable federal and state law, and shall be interpreted, to the extent possible, to cover only matters not preempted by federal or state law.

B. If anything in this chapter is for any reason declared or held to be invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction or superseded by state or federal law, rule, regulation or decision, the remainder of this chapter shall not be affected thereby but shall be deemed as a separate and distinct and independent provision, and such holding shall not affect the validity of the remaining parts of this chapter and each remaining part shall be valid and enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by law. In the event any provision is preempted by federal or state law, rule or regulation, the provision shall be preempted only to the extent required by law and any portion not preempted shall survive. If any federal or state law resulting in preemption is later repealed, rescinded, amended or otherwise changed to end the preemption, the provision shall immediately return to full force and effect and be binding without further action by the City.
