The Clerk submitted the contract with the Patent Victoria Stone
Company, providing for the completion of the works by the 30th
September 1896, to the Vestry for sealing on the 11th December
1895; but after a long debate an amendment proposed by
Mr. Dawes, to defer sealing the agreement until after the appointment
of a new Surveyor, was carried by 37 to 13. The Committee
then selected from the list certain works urgently required,
amounting to £424 2«. 9d. according to the estimate, and recommended
on the 8th January 1896:—
That the Committee be empowered to proceed with the footway paving
works of Hampton Street, Steedman Street and Union Road, as
recommended in the list of paving works to be executed out of the
paving loan.
