Assembly amendment 1 offered by LEMAHIEU: Replace one of two references to "Conservatory Road," in introduced text, and correct that one specific reference to say "Conservation Road." Leave the other faulty reference uncorrected.

10/21/2003

Assembly amendment 2 offered by LEMAHIEU: Modify the language banning parking in the lot created for that purpose near Mazo Beach. Make the ban effective only from May 1 to September 30, so that it's clear the measure is aimed at users of the clothing-optional beach, and not at hunters.
