NOTES

   (1)   The above bearings are based upon a true meridian as established from U. S. Coast and Geodetic Monument "College," which azimuth has been established for all town control monuments.

   (2)   Pursuant to Article III, Section 61 of the Maryland Constitution, the General Assembly of Maryland granted urban renewal powers for slum clearance to the Town of Chestertown in Chapter 380 of the Acts of the General Assembly of 1975.

   Starting with the 1997 Supplement to the Public Local Laws of Maryland – Compilation of Municipal Charters, the urban renewal powers for slum clearance for the Town of Chestertown appear as this appendix in accordance with 80 Opinions of the Attorney General __________________(1995) [Opinion No. 95-037 (September 21, 1995)] and Sections 10 and 11 of Chapter 14 of the Acts of the General Assembly of 1997.

   (3)   Resolution Number 1-01 and 2-01, effective March 27, 2001, attempted to amend Article VI, Section C6-21 and Article V, Section 5-7. The Charter on file does not follow this numbering. However, the corresponding section numbers in the Charter on file are Section 57 and 28, and the amendment to Sections 57 and 28 will be reflected accordingly.
