^[12] This section, with former subsection (1), was originally enacted with the Code in 1956. Subsection (2) was added in 1989 (1989 Ordinances, p. 1160) and amended in 1991 (1991 Ordinances, p. 988). In 1994 two Ordinances were approved: 1994 Ordinances, p. 904 deleted subsection (2); 1994 Ordinances, p. 913 repealed Section 17-104 altogether. In 1995, Bill No. 890 (approved March 29, 1995), 1995 Ordinances, p. 161, added a new subsection (2), assuming the existence of the Section itself. This is a valid enactment, and thus subsection (2) as printed here stands alone, and there is no subsection (1).
