No. 45 Tetley Street, work done, notice complied with, and
costs of summons paid at date of adjourned hearing of summons.
Summons withdrawn.
No. 61 Burcham Street, as above.
No. 23 Byron Street, work done, notice complied with after
application was made for summons and hearing adjourned in
order that the owner might complete work in compliance with
Board's bye laws. The infringement was that the open space
(enclosed forecourt) adjacent to front of premises was not
"paved upon a sufficient bed of good concrete." The evidence
proved that it was not "paved with a hard, durable, and impervious
pavement, so sloped as to effectually carry off all rain
or waste water therefrom," and that the forecourt had been
patched (28 square feet being relaid) to evade legal proceedings
being taken. The forecourt had been so badly paved that a
portion of its surface was covered with water.
Fined 20s. and 2s. costs, and 2 guineas costs to the Board.
