notice is hereby given that on behalf of The Beechwood Cemetery Company, an application will be made to the Legislative Assembly of the Province of °ÄÃÅÓÀÀû for

for special legislation to amend An Act to incorporate “The Beechwood Cemetery Company of the City of Ottawa”, being chapter 149 of the Statutes of °ÄÃÅÓÀÀû, 1873, as amended by Acts enacted in 1894, 1914, 1921, 1928, 1962-63 and 2013 (the “Act”). The company is also governed by The Beechwood Cemetery Company of the City of Ottawa Act, 1956.

The application will be considered by the Standing Committee on Regulations and Private Bills.
