No provision of this chapter shall be effective until signs, signals, markings or other devices giving notice of such local traffic regulations are posted upon or at the entrance to the street or part thereof affected, as may be most appropriate, so that in a proper position they are sufficiently legible to be seen by an ordinarily observant person. No traffic control regulation promulgated by the Director of Public Service and Safety shall be effective until Council has been notified of such regulation.
Notwithstanding the provisions of this chapter, the traffic control regulations promulgated by the Director of Public Service and Safety pursuant to the authority granted herein shall be effective for a period of ninety days.

In addition, Council may override any decision of the Director of Public Service and Safety and may assume any of the powers delegated to the Director. Upon adoption of any such legislation, the same may be changed only by amending or repealing legislation adopted by Council.
Except as otherwise provided, any person violating the rules and regulations promulgated in connection with this chapter is guilty of a misdemeanor which shall be classified as provided in Section 303.99.
