    For anyone confused – like I was – New York City has a legislative process more akin to a state or province, than to a typical American city or town. Whereas the norm is for a town to have “proposed ordinances” that might eventually becomes chaptered ordinances and rarely have so many that they require numbers, NYC assigns proposed legislation with an “introduction number” (aka “intro”), similar to how the US Congress might have S.B. 420, meaning Senate Bill, as an example.

    So this Intro 606 could be called Bill 606 if using non-NYC parlance.
