    <text>It is the intention of the County Council that any elderly or disabled renter who both was eligible for and did receive a previous rent relief payment in this County under the laws repealed by Council Bill 63-1979 shall in the future receive, at a minimum, such rent relief payments as would have been previously available, had the taxpayer's status and payment been computed under the former County program. The Director of Finance is authorized and directed to promulgate procedures whereby the County shall supplement the rent relief payments made to such renter under the State program. Such procedures shall have the approval of the County Executive and County Council prior to publication.</text>
