SECTION 6: If any portion or portions of this ordinance are deemed or held to <br /> be invalid, such invalidity shall not affect the remaining portions of this ordinance. <br /> EMERGENCY CLAUSE: The City of Batesville has an obligation to provide <br /> adequate protection for the persons and property of its citizens.

That some of these bars, nightclubs, and private <br /> clubs currently operate well beyond 1 am. Therefore, the need for enforcement of this <br /> ordinance is immediate. Therefore an emergency is hereby declared to exits and this <br /> ordinance shall be in full force and effect from and after the date of its passage in order to <br /> preserve the public peace, health, and safety, as well as to protect the city economically. <br /> PASSED AND APPROVED this3I'lt-day of , 2018. <br /> ATTEST: <br /> R ck El baug , MAYO <br /> Denise Johnston <br /> CITY CLERK <br />
