If any provision of this part 5 is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be unconstitutional, the remaining provisions of this part 5 are valid, unless it appears to the court that the valid provisions of this part 5 are so essentially and inseparably connected with, and so dependent upon, the void provision that it cannot be presumed that the general assembly would have enacted the valid provisions without the void provision or unless the court determines that the valid provisions, standing alone, are incomplete and are incapable of being executed in accordance with the legislative intent of this part 5.
