Essex County Council Act, 1933
Approval was given in one case to an application to place a
caravan on land in the Borough under the powers conferred upon
the Council by the above Act. The caravan was to be used to house a
young couple who required their own accommodation after their
wedding.
Such an application again brings home to everyone the difficulties
experienced by such couples who seek accommodation on getting
married. The use of caravans for permanent residence is by no
means desirable, but the vehicles do allow such people to enjoy
their married life away from their parents and in-laws.
Essex County Council Act, 1952.
The new County Council Act allows the Medical Officer of
Health or Sanitary Inspector to serve notices in connection with
choked drains. This section was operated in one case where the
Council executed the work in default, and charged the owner for so
doing.
