Official:Authorizing transfers in appropriations for Fiscal Year 2003 within the General Fund from the Department of Revenue - Sinking Fund Commission to the Director of Finance - Contribution to the School District.
Sponsor: Councilmember Nutter
Introduced: November 21, 2002
: Committee on Appropriations
Status: Lapsed
This bill was introduced in the 2000–2003 Council term and when that term ran out. The public record shows no committee vote and no floor vote at any stage, so no member of Council ever went on record for or against it.
That is not unusual here. Of the 8,465 bills introduced between 2000 and 2025, 1,624 lapsed without a single recorded vote. Ninety percent of bills that became law carry a roll call. Three percent of lapsed bills do. How this works.
This bill allows the Director of Finance to transfer $11 million from the Department of Revenue's Sinking Fund Commission to the School District.
