beverages is insubstantial when compared to all other sources
of gross revenue.

competent jurisdiction, such decision shall not affect the
validity of the remaining portions of this ordinance. The City
Council of the City of Santa Ana hereby declares that it would
have adopted this ordinance and each section, subsection, sen-
tence, clause, phrase or portion thereof irrespective of the

or portions be declared invalid or unconstitutional.
