Tybee Proposed New STVR Ordinance eluding that the original ordinance may be unconstitutional

2023 Tybee Update: 

The heat is on 🔥 - City Council meeting TONIGHT 1/12/23: The city of Tybee is doing a 2nd reading of this "new" part of the STVR ordinance to try to cover themselves as they are starting to realize what they did may be unconstitutional. 🙈🙉🙊

They also state in the intro to this document", it is necessary and appropriate to revise the prior ShortTerm Rental ordinance in order to transfer provisions thereof into the zoning code of the City and to include in such transfer revisions that are pending to the code" 🙊🙉🙈    I've attached a link below... but here are the "highlights" from the doc too:

SECTION 1 

The provisions of the ordinance and sections previously codified at Sec. 34- 260 through Sec. 34-272, with the express addition of Section 2 below as Sec. 34- 272 are hereby adopted as part of the zoning ordinances of the City and to be designated as Section 4-051, entitled “Short-Term Rentals”.

SECTION 2

If any section, clause, sentence or phrase of this ordinance is held to be invalid or unconstitutional by any court of competent jurisdiction, then said holding shall in no way effect the validity of the remaining portions of this ordinance. It is hereby declared as the intent of the City of Tybee Island Mayor and Council that this ordinance would have been adopted had such invalid or unconstitutional portion not been included herein.

SECTION 3

All ordinances and parts of ordinances in conflict herewith are expressly repealed.

SECTION 4

It is the intention of the governing body, and it is hereby ordained, that the provisions of this ordinance shall become effective and be made a part of the Code of Ordinances, City of Tybee Island, Georgia, and the sections of this ordinance may be renumbered to accomplish such intention.
