filed by a member of that tenants' union. The commission may also refer those findings
to other city departments or committees responsible for regulating housing accommodations
within the city. The commission shall promulgate rules and regulations governing the
activities of tenants' unions before the commission.
Tenants' Union Membership Roster. The tenants' union representative(s) shall submit an updated membership roster to
