WHEREAS, the Mayor and City Council have, after
deliberation, concluded that Subsections 1.7(a), (b), (c), and

the above subsections of the City Charter to more accurately
enumerate those powers expressly granted to the municipality
under the laws of the State of Maryland; and to make it clear
that the City Council will continue to exercise the full range of
powers and functions not denied to it by the Constitution or Laws
of the State of Maryland or by other provisions of its Charter;
