Description:
One of the principal avenues city agencies have for the exercise of
their authority under the Charter and the Administrative Code is the
promulgation and enforcement of rules. For example, when the Charter
and/or the Administrative Code authorize an agency to seize property,
close certain establishments and impose monetary penalties, that
authority is normally fleshed out by the agencies during the rulemaking
process. During this process, agencies, for example, set specific dollar
amounts and identify the conditions that must prevail before an
establishment may be closed or property seized. The rules also set out
the specific steps those affected by agency action must take in order to
reopen their establishments, challenge the imposition of penalties, and
recover their property. Given the scope of the power agencies exercise
through this medium, it is important for agency attorneys and attorneys
representing businesses and individuals subject to city rules to become
familiar with their function as well as their limitations. This CLE
program proposes to acquaint attendees with the nature and purpose of
rules, the process by which they are promulgated, how best to draft
them, as well as the statutory and court limitations imposed upon them.
