The Borough Surveyor reported to the Council upon
the condition of the street name plates within the
Borough, shewing that 158 new name plates were
required and 32 required painting. The new plates,

FIRE ALARM INDICATORS.
The question of the desirability of making known
the position of fire alarms has been considered by the
Borough Council on the suggestion of the County
Council.
After considering the matter the Borough Council
agreed that if the County Council would supply the
necessary number of indicators the Borough Council
would undertake to fix the indicators to the lamp columns
nearest the fire alarms in the Borough, and to maintain
the indicators and paint them as often as may be
necessary.

I am, Gentlemen,
Your obedient Servant,

Borough Surveyor.
