the matter was brought to the attention of township clerk walter taylor by mayoralty candidate morley pitts pitts claimed the wording of the bylaw contradicted that of the 1982 guide for candidates and electors in thearea of person al expenses according to the ruling municipal election candidates could be limited in and be re quired to disclose election ex penditures and contributions on their behalf in excess of 100 according to the guide however actual personal ex penses incurred by the candi date in good faith and without corrupt intent shall be deemed to be expenses lawfully incur red and the payment thereof is not a contravention of this act in 1982 the municipal elec tions act was repealed and re placed by a new section mr taylor said the township didnt know what its position was af ter being confronted by pitts until it consulted with its soli citor the legal opinion that fol lowed was that candidates could not be limited in their ex penditures or in contributions to their
