ber 3, 1964, which authorized the City to borrow $1,500,000.00 and

City on February 21, 1963, and by the voters of Baltimore City on
May 7, 1963, which authorized the City to borrow $2,000,000.00 and
to use the same generally for extending, enlarging, developing and
improving the general park and recreational system and facilities of
the City, except in the Jones Falls Valley area, as anticipated by
Section 3(C) of said Chapter 1; and the City has issued and sold

to use the same for the acquisition of property in the area in Balti-
more City generally referred to as the Jones Falls Valley and for the

purposes, as provided in Section 3(D) of said Chapter 1; and the
City has issued and sold its bonds in the amount of $1,200,000.00
pursuant to the provisions of said legislation; and

Whereas, Section 3(B) of said Chapter 1 authorized the City to
use $2,300,000.00 of the proceeds derived from the sale of bonds
authorized to be issued by the City under the provisions of said
Chapter 1, generally for or in connection with the acquisition and
improvement of, and additions to, public park or recreational build-
ings or facilities, including the zoo in Druid Hill Park and the Balti-
more Memorial Stadium; however, no ordinance authorizing the City
to borrow the forementioned sum of $2,300,000.00 has been approved
by the voters of Baltimore City, and no bonds have been issued and
sold for said purposes; and

Whereas, it has been determined that now it would not be in
the best interests of the City to borrow the forementioned sum of
$2,300,000.00 for the specific purposes mentioned in Section 3(B)
of said Chapter 1; now, therefore

Section 1. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Maryland,
That Section 3(B) of Chapter 1 of the Laws of Maryland of 1963 be
and the same is hereby repealed.
