(Apr. 5, 2021, D.C. Law 23-269, § 106, 68 DCR 001490.)
Section 7276 of D.C. Law 24-45 repealed the applicability provision of section 601 of D.C. Law 23-269 that impacted this section. Therefore the creation of this section by Law 23-269 has been implemented.
Applicability of D.C. Law 23-269: § 601 of D.C. Law 23-269 provided that the creation of this section by § 106 of D.C. Law 23-269 is subject to the inclusion of the law’s fiscal effect in an approved budget and financial plan. Therefore that amendment has not been implemented.
