This ordinance amends the Campaign Finance Act ('Act') to ensure that: the contribution limits applicable to those doing business with the city apply for an entire election cycle, meaning a primary and general election, and not for each election; the new matching level of 6:1 up to $175 will be retroactively applied from the start of the current election cycle (January 2006); the exemption from the doing business restrictions for affordable housing developers would only apply to landlords accepting Section 8 and those providers of affordable housing whose selection for benefits do not involve significant discretion by the department of housing preservation and development or other City agencies in awarding a benefit; and to clarify some of the Law's provisions.
