In general the larger areas are to be cleared and redeveloped
by the County Council whilst the smaller areas
are the responsibility of the Borough Councilo
During 1952 the Borough Council dealt with the Chipka
Street area involving 11 houses.
In two areas, namely Arrow Road-Devons Road, and Beachy
Road, which were scheduled to be dealt with during 1952, the
houses had been so improved by the carrying out of War
Damage repairs that their condition no longer warranted the
priority which they had been given when the programme was
preparedo
In the Mackrow Street-Woolmore Street area involving
43 houses the survey was carried out and representation made
to the Borough Council in 1952, but the Order was not confirmed
until 1953.
Demolition Orders were also made or undertakings not to
use for human habitation were accepted in respect of four
individual unfit houses which could not properly be included
in the clearance areas, or which on account of their unfit
condition had to be dealt with in advance of the agreed
programme 0
