Your Committee, therefore, recommend-
1. —That Webb's Lamps be erected at the spots marked in red
on the map 1, 2, and 3, and Reeves' Apparatus be
provided at the points marked in blue 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6
at a total estimated cost of £135.
(Provision for this amount has been made in the
estimates of expenditure for the ensuing financial
year.)
2. —That the ventilating grids already existing in the Borough
be retained, and where necessary be enlarged or the
number increased.
3.—That the condition of the Fortune Green Sewer be referred
to the Works Committee.
4.—That sewers, the walls of which are found dirty in the
neighbourhood of a ventilating grid, be periodically
cleansed.
5.—That the attention of the London County Council be
directed to the necessity for better ventilation of their
sewers in the Borough.
6.—That the writers of letters referred to this Committee be
informed that in the opinion of the Council there is no
evidence in Hampstead or elsewhere of danger to health
due to sewer air arising from ventilators, and that the
Council is taking steps to prevent the unpleasant effluvium.
