MAIN ROADS.
Id June, 1880, the Works Committee reported recommending
that the County Council ho informed that it is undesirable to alter
the present arrangements for maintenance of Main Roads, as the
taking over of such roads by the County Council would inflict
hardship on the poorer parishes and on these not centrally situated.
The Vestry adopted the recommendation.

duty to consider any application to declare theroughfares to be
"Main Roads," the Works Committeo reported recommending

approximate lengths in yards were, of Macadam Road, 4170;
fully-paved roads, 39,300; roads paved for half-widths only, 3905.
Tho Report was approved, and application mado to the Council.

that a six-stall Urinal be erected. The Vestry approved of the
terms arranged with the Railway Company, and referred the
subject to the Works Committee to report further as to the Urinal
proposed to be erected. The Committee reported that no Urinal
in stock would satisfy the requirements of the Railway Company,
and recommended that a Urinal similar to that in Austin Street
