B 25-0356 District of Columbia · 25th Council Period (2023-2024)

Floodplain Review Authority Amendment Act of 2023

This bill removes a requirement that directs the Mayor to assign floodplain review duties to the Director of the Department of Buildings. By repealing this specific section of the Applications Insurance Implementation Act, the legislation returns the authority to decide how these functions are distributed to the Mayor's discretion. The change affects the administrative structure of floodplain management within the District of Columbia without altering the underlying laws governing floodplain applications.
