The new law would require third-party food delivery services to obtain a license in order to do business in the City. The bill would also repeal the subchapter in the Administrative Code that contains existing laws regulating third-party food delivery services, and it would incorporate many of those requirements into this law’s licensing scheme. The Department of Consumer and Worker Protection would be able to deny, refuse to renew, or suspend or revoke a license if the Department determines that a third-party food delivery service has committed two or more violations of this law’s provisions.
A new law that would expand the definition of “private identifying information” for data breach notifications to align them with State laws.

The law would also add a requirement that the Department of Transportation create a public education program to promote safety in the use of powered mobility devices.
