Meaning of 法律のとおり


> 東京消防庁は、今も法律に違反しているマンションが３０２あるため、早く **法律のとおり** にするように言っています。  
>  Even now, because there are 302 apartment blocks which are breaking the
> law, Tokyo fire department are telling people to quickly _decide on the
> law's street_.

I can't figure out at all what the fire department are telling people to do. I
did a Google search for the phrase "法律のとおり" (in quotes) and only got 3 hits.




It's not とおり meaning "street". This とおり means "in accordance with". For
example: 思ったとおり "as I thought", おっしゃったとおり "as you said", そのとおりです "that's the
way it is", "that's right" (= そうです but a bit more formal), 次のとおり "as follows".

So 法律のとおりにする means "make it in accordance with the law", that is "bring it in
line with the law"
