In the case where the holding of the vote depends on the results of a public meeting of the persons qualified to vote or of a registration of these persons in accordance with sections 370 to 384 of the Cities and Towns Act (chapter C-19), the part of the roll contemplated in article 304 is revised for the purposes of the public meeting or of the registration and is not revised again for the purposes of the vote, if it is held.
The revision may be made only for one zone or one sector of the municipality or for some of them.
