House to House.—As a result of the house to house
visitation 2,247 inspections were made, 1,967 notices
served, and 1,485 complied with.
The special house-to-house inspection of certain streets
in the borough continued throughout the year. The two
temporary Sanitary Inspectors inspected 2,247 houses.
This work has not proceeded as quickly as it was anticipated
owing to the resignation of the two Inspectors
appointed, and the consequent periods which elapsed
before the appointment of their successors.
In order to facilitate the inspection of the houses
scheduled by the Council for house-to-house inspection,
arrangements were made for the notices to be followed
up by the District Sanitary Inspectors.
In many instances overcrowding and the illegal occupation
of underground rooms was observed and dealt
with.
Smoke Abatement.—During the year observations were
kept in reference to black smoke emitted from the various
factories, laundries, bakehouses, &c., situate in and
adjoining the Borough. Twenty-five Intimation Notices
were served. No summons was taken out.
