ARTICLE IX - SEVERABILITY

section 1: severability
Each of the provisions of these By-laws shall be considered a separate and severable provision so that if any provision is deemed or declared to be invalid or unenforceable, such determination shall have no effect on the validity or enforceability of any of the other provisions. 

section 2: preemption of laws
If a State of Federal law makes invalid any of the provisions of these By-laws, or requires more notice than provided, or create rights, and procedures not provided or inconsistent, the law shall be applied and preempt these By-laws to that extent, but all other provisions of the By-laws shall continue in full force and effect.
