§ 11-119.1-12.

A. This Division shall be construed liberally to effectuate its legislative intent and purpose, as complete and independent authority for the performance of each and every act and thing authorized by this Division, and all authority granted shall be broadly interpreted to effectuate this intent and purpose and not as a limitation of powers. This Division is expressly not a limit on any of the powers granted any unit of local government of this State by constitution, statute, charter or otherwise, other than when the unit of local government is acting expressly pursuant to this Division. B. In the event of any conflict or inconsistency between this Division and any other law or charter provision, the provisions of this Division shall prevail. C. Any provision of this Division which may be determined by competent authority to be prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.
