PART VIII.

130. If, in the opinion of the Board, a full compliance with any part of these by-laws, or any provision thereof, would needlessly injudiciously affect the course and operation of business, or be attended with great loss and inconvenience to any person, without a corresponding benefit to the community, the Board may, on special application, waive the strict observance of any provision, or modify the same, provided that such other terms as they may impose be complied with by the applicant.

The above by-laws were made by special order of the Ostend Road Board, the resolution to make the same having been passed at a special meeting of the said Board held on the 5th day of September, 1921, and confirmed at a subsequent meeting thereof on the 10th day of October, 1921.
