Re: Links to - Letter from Code Enforcement

[Guest guest]

Group,

The links as they appear in my post won't work because there are

spaces which have been added in the middle of them. This has

been happening consistently on this group with myself and

others. A week or so ago I resent the links with the spaces

removed, but they appeared with the spaces. So I suggest you

review the links and remove the spaces.
