The Council asserted that this court’s decision made it “necessary to clarify the Council’s intent that tenants have the full 30 days provided by law to express an interest in purchasing their unit following an offer of sale from the landlord.” See § 2(e), (g) of the Tenant Opportunity to Purchase Preservation Clarification Emergency Declaration Resolution of 2009 (emphasis added).10 56 D.C.Reg. 2120 (2009). Thus, the announced purpose of the amendment was “to clarify” that a tenant can preserve his opportunity to purchase by “hand delivery or sending by certified mail [the] letter of interest” and that “actual receipt ... by the housing provider or the Mayor within the relevant time frame is not required.” D.C. Act 18-327, Preamble, 57 D.C.Reg. 2544 (2010).
