Operative Text

Stamford, Conn., Code of Ordinances ch. 6, art. II § 6-10.2
If any part, section or portion of this Article is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be null and void, the remainder shall remain in full force and effect.
Source: Legislative text reproduced verbatim
Plain English

Section 6-10.2 of Stamford Code of Ordinances ch. 6, art. II is a severability clause, meaning that if any individual part of Article II is struck down by a court as legally invalid, the rest of the Article continues to operate as if the invalidated portion never existed. This type of provision is standard in legislation and is designed to preserve the overall regulatory framework even when specific components face legal challenges. The rule itself does not impose any obligations or grant any rights beyond ensuring the Article's structural durability.

For Property Managers

For property owners and managers operating under Stamford Code of Ordinances ch. 6, art. II, the severability clause in § 6-10.2 means that compliance obligations under the Article remain in effect even if a court invalidates one or more specific provisions. Operators generally continue to follow all other requirements of Article II unless and until a court order specifically addresses those provisions. Staying informed about any judicial rulings affecting the Article helps ensure ongoing compliance with the portions that remain valid.

For Tenants

Section 6-10.2 of Stamford Code of Ordinances ch. 6, art. II protects tenants by ensuring that the broader tenant protections within the Article are not automatically wiped out if one section is found legally invalid by a court. This means that rights and remedies established elsewhere in Article II generally remain enforceable even after a partial court ruling. Tenants who have questions about how a specific court decision may affect their protections can consult a local tenant-rights organization for general guidance.
