In accordance with the provisions of Article XI-A of the Maryland Constitution, all references in the Constitution and the laws of this State to the County Commissioners shall, at such time as the elected members of the first County Council and first County Executive take office, be construed to refer to the County Council and to the County Executive whenever such construction would be reasonable. The County Council shall succeed to all legislative powers vested heretofore in the County Commissioners and the County Executive shall succeed to all executive and administrative powers heretofore vested in the County Commissioners by the Constitution and laws of this State except as provided in this Charter.
