Rules of Organization and Procedure for the Council of the District of Columbia, Council Period 26, Resolution of 2025

This resolution establishes the internal operating rules for the Council of the District of Columbia during Council Period 26 (2025). It formally adopts three documents: the "Rules of Organization and Procedure," a "Code of Official Conduct," and a "Sexual Harassment Policy" for council members and staff. These rules govern how the council organizes its committees, conducts meetings, and enforces ethical standards. The resolution takes effect immediately and applies solely to the council's internal operations, not to public policy or residents.

MINOR

This diff shows formatting and structural changes to a legislative bill rather than substantive policy changes. The document maintains the same core provisions regarding rules of organization, code of conduct, and sexual harassment policy for the Council of the District of Columbia during Council Period 26. The changes primarily involve reorganization of the table of contents, page number updates, and minor formatting adjustments to the resolution text.

TECHNICAL

Page numbers in the table of contents were updated throughout the document, with several sections showing new page references (e.g., Definitions moved from page 9 to 10, Organization sections shifted to pages 13-32).

New section 262 (Secretary), 263 (General Counsel), and 264 (Budget Director) were added to the table of contents under Article II, Section G, expanding the listed appointed officers.

The resolution header was reformatted with the title 'ENROLLED ORIGINAL' appearing in different locations, and the document structure was reorganized with additional spacing and section numbering adjustments.
