ORDINANCE NO. BL2003-1524

Mr. President:

I move to amend Ordinance No. BL2003-1524 by amending Section 3 by adding after the word “abandoned” the phrase “subject to the relocation of the existing utilities in the easement at the expense of the applicant and then the easement will be abandoned after the relevant department of the Metropolitan Government has accepted the relocated utilities”.
