Sycamore’s position has essentially four parts. First, Sycamore maintains that the Cambridge Rent Control Board does not have authority to order abatement of rent for a violation of the State Sanitary Code because the authority to order rent abate-ments lies exclusively in the courts. In support of that proposition, Sycamore cites G.L.c. Ill, §127H, a statute that was in effect at all material times but was repealed by St. 1992, c. 407, §9 approved January 14, 1993 and effective ninety days thereafter.
