Editor's Notes

The Law Effective Date Notice for D.C. Law 1-96, published on April 8, 1977, was incorrect and was corrected on June 3, 1977, and published at 23 DCR 9532b.

“District of Columbia Council”, appearing twice in (a) and once in (c), should probably be “Council of the District of Columbia” or “Council”, in view of § 1-1502(1)(B) and the fact that this section refers to current and ongoing Council activity.
