Section 5. The temporary moratorium imposed upon receipt of applications as set forth in this ordinance is temporary in nature and may be repealed by subsequent legislative enactment. The temporary moratorium established by this ordinance shall terminate on September 30, 2023, unless sooner repealed. Section 6. If any portion of this ordinance is held to be invalid for any reason, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this ordinance. The City Council hereby declares that it would have passed this ordinance and each part hereof irrespective of the fact that any one part be declared invalid. Section 7. The repeal or modification of any provision of the Municipal Code of the City of Louisville by this ordinance shall not release, extinguish, alter, modify, or change in whole or in part any penalty, forfeiture, or liability, either civil or criminal, which shall have been incurred under such provision, and each provision shall be treated and held as still remaining in force for the purpose of sustaining any and all proper actions, suits, proceedings, and prosecutions for the enforcement of the penalty, forfeiture, or liability, as well as for the purpose of sustaining any judgment, decree, or order which can or may be rendered, entered, or made in such actions, suits, proceedings, or prosecutions. Section 8. All other ordinances or portions thereof inconsistent or conflicting with this ordinance or any portion hereof are hereby repealed to the extent of such inconsistency or conflict. Section 9. The City Council herewith finds, determines and declares that this ordinance is genuinely and urgently necessary for the immediate preservation of the public health, safety and welfare in order to avoid development that may contravene the City's efforts to protect the health, safety, and welfare or the registered electors' efforts to utilize the initiative process to enact legislation, and it is thus of critical importance to the City and its residents that any regulations adopted by the City Council or approved by the City's registered electors concerning gasoline service stations or automobile service stations be applied to all future applications for such uses within the City. Therefore, City Council herewith further finds, determines and declares that it is necessary for this ordinance to take effect immediately upon adoption, provided the same has been adopted and signed by the Mayor and approved by two-thirds of the entire City Council. INTRODUCED, READ, PASSED AND ADOPTED AS AN EMERGENCY ORDINANCE BY TWO-THIRDS OF THE ENTIRE CITY COUNCIL, AND ORDERED PUBLISHED this 1st day of November, 2022.
