During
the period commencing with the effective date of the ordinance codified
in this chapter, an elected officer, candidate, committee, or other
person may choose to opt into the City's electronic filing system

has opted in, all subsequent statements shall be filed electronically.
An elected officer, candidate, committee, or other person may opt
out of the electronic filing system by filing original statements
in paper format with the City Clerk. Thereafter the elected officer,
candidate, committee, or other person shall file all original statements
in paper format with the City Clerk.
