Notwithstanding any inconsistent provision of law, following the submission of such committee’s recommendations in 2019, and on or before March 1, 2020, such committee shall post online and provide to the speaker of the council a written report on the impact of such pilot program, including any recommendations regarding the installation of electric vehicle charging stations in the city.
