PREFACE

District of Columbia Session Law Service supplies prompt and ready access to
the laws of the District through a series of pamphlets issued during each period
of the Council. Speed and accuracy in presenting to you recently enacted Acts
are two important features of this service.

District of Columbia Session Law Service includes editorial features such as a
summary of current legislation of general interest to the legal profession
prepared for the District of Columbia Session Law Service by the editorial staff
of West. _....:,

At the back of this Pamphlet are Tables reflecting the effect of the Laws and
Emergency Acts of the 19th Council Session passed during 2012. An Index
follows the Tables at the end of the pamphlet that reliably aids in locating
desired material.

D.C. Official Code, 2001 Ed. § 1-206.02 places limitations upon the authority
of the District Council to pass legislation. All acts are subject to Congressional
review before becoming effective law unless the Council determines that emer-
gency circumstances require that an act take effect immediately. The Congres-
sional review period is 30 Congressional days except the review period for acts
involving Titles 22, 23, and 24 is 60 Congressional days.

Permanent acts become effective upon completion of mandatory Congressional
review and then are assigned D.C. Law numbers. Permanent acts remain in
effect until repealed or amended.

Temporary acts become effective upon completion of mandatory Congressional
review and then are assigned D.C. Law numbers. Temporary acts remain in
effect for 225 days.

Emergency acts become immediately effective upon approval of the Mayor
(and the Financial Responsibility and Management Assistance authority during
a control year). Emergency acts are not subject to Congressional review, are
never assigned D.C. Law numbers, and are effective for 90 days.

The material contained in the pamphlets will be edited and incorporated in
the annual cumulative pocket parts for the District of Columbia Official Code.

factor in the court's decision of whether or not to grant or deny a petition for custody or
visitation, and neither deployment nor the potential for future deployment of a military parent

BE IT ENACTED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA, That this

Sec. 2. Findings. ; _ )t } ■ ...-.,■_. ■, , . : ^..., > ^ -^ ■*> „.;:,,■* .-,«./, ,*>■■ :'

The Council finds that: i, . ='

' (1) In 2005* the District of Columbia Department of Housing. 1 and Community Develop-
ment ("DHCD") loaned ( $2;5 million- to, the Capital Area rFood Bank ^CAFB"). This loan
. was- secured by a mortgage on the CAFB's TaylorStreetprop.erty; .>..- -: , ' ^ v-\

168

2012 Legislation Act 19-304

(2) In 2006, the DHCD entered into a subsequent agreement with the CAFB, in which
the agency agreed to forgive the loan if the CAFB provided a certain amount of food to
District residents. The subsequent agreement was approved by City Administrator Robert
Bobb. The DHCD failed to submit this subsequent agreement to the Council for approval
pursuant to section 451(b)(1) of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, approved
December 24, 1973 (87 Stat. 774; D.C. Official Code § 1-204.5 1(b)(1)).

(3) In July 2006, the DCHD director stated in writing that the CAFB had met its
obligation to provide food for the community and, accordingly, that the $2.5 million loan had
been forgiven.

(4) Because both parties consented to and abided by the terms of the subsequent
agreement, the DHCD requests that the Council ratify it.

(5) The Chief Financial Officer ("CFO") has concluded that forgiving the loan has no
fiscal impact because the loan is not listed in the District's accounts receivables. After the
subsequent agreement was executed in 2006, the District no longer expected to be repaid;
therefore, repayment of the loan is not included in the District's Annual Budget and
Financial Plan.

(6) The CFO has further opined that because the loan is in excess of $1 million, Council
action is necessary to approve forgiveness of the loan in accordance with section 451(b)(1) of
the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, approved December 24, 1973 (87 Stat. 774; D.C.
Official Code § l-204.51(b)(D).

Sec. 3. Ratification.

(a) Pursuant to section 451 of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act, approved
December 24, 1973 (87 Stat. 803; D.C. Official Code § 1-204.51), and notwithstanding the
requirements of section 202 of the Procurement Practices Reform Act of 2010, effective April
8, 2011 (D.C. Law 18-391; D.C. Official Code§ 2-352.02), the Council approves the subse-
quent agreement between the DHCD and the CAFB.

(b) The Council authorizes the Recorder of Deeds, to cancel recordation of the Deed of
Trust on Lot 0813, Square 3788, in the land records of the District of Columbia as Instrument
No. 2005099638 on July 19, 2005, and accept and record all documents necessary to effectuate
the release and cancellation of the lien.

Sec. 4. Fiscal impact statement.

The Council adopts the fiscal impact statement of the Chief Financial Officer as the fiscal
impact statement required by section 602(c)(3) of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act,
approved December 24, 1973 (87 Stat 813; D.C. Official Code § l-206.02(c)(3)). ,

Mayor, action by the Council to override the veto); and shall remain in effect for no longer
than 90 days, as provided for emergency acts of the Council of the District of Columbia in
