What is a Law New?

Articles

A law new, or a Law New, is any Law enacted after the Effective Date, including laws, ordinances, resolutions and rules. A Law New may conflict with the Law or another law or with any other City laws, ordinances, resolutions, rules or regulations, such as impact fees. A Law New must be set out in a committee report, which provides an explanation of the purpose and scope of a bill and describes changes in existing law and text of laws being repealed. Committee reports are often cited by courts and are useful to legislative historians. This page does not constitute legal advice and does not create an attorney-client relationship.
