the provisions in this Ordinance. This Ordinance is not intended to be, nor shall be, construed to create any basis for liability on the part of the City, its officers, employees or agents ("City") for any injury or damage that an individual, class or group may claim arises from any action or inaction on the part of the City. Nothing contained in this Ordinance is intended to, nor shall be construed to, impose upon the City any duty that can become the basis of a legal action for injury or damage. Section 6. No effect on pending case or matter. The enactment of this Ordinance shall not affect any case, proceeding, appeal or other matter currently pending before the City or in any court. Section 7. Authority to make necessary corrections. The City Clerk and the codifiers of this Ordinance are authorized to make necessary corrections to this Ordinance including, but not limited to, the correction of scrivener's clerical errors, references, ordinance numbering, section/subsection numbers and any references thereto. Section 8. Enforcement. Violations of this Ordinance are punishable under EMC, Chapters 1.16, 1.20, 5.120, 5.124, and 5.128 and as otherwise provided by law and in EMC 1.20.020, and are subject to injunctive and other forms of civil relief which the City may seek. Section 9. Effective Date. It is necessary to pass this Ordinance as an emergency to preserve the status quo. If not adopted as an emergency ordinance, then there would be a period of time within which homeless encampments could establish such facilities and possibly obtain vested rights which would be incompatible with the regulatory scheme to be considered and prepared as a result of this Ordinance. This Ordinance, as a public emergency ordinance, is necessary for the protection of the public health, safety and welfare, and shall take effect and be in full force immediately upon its becoming valid. 4
