Yours
To avoid any ambiguity or difficulty in the future
it is recommended that rather than submitting an entirely new
by-law and revoking the former that you merely amend the sched-
ules to the presently existing by-law i.e 2104.
very truly
It is noted that By-law No. 2104 is in effect a
third amendment to the original By-law No. 2021 which was ap-
proved by the Department on June 27th, 1968, for a period of
three years. I would also point out that the approval of By-
law No. 2104 lapses on the 27th day of June 1971.
Further to your letter dated May
approved copy of By-law No. 2104.
