and Supplemental Lists by Parish Officers of Parish.
Date of Meeting.
24 Sept., 1888. Read letters from the Vestry Clerk of the Parish of Fulham,
stating that in consequence of pressure of work he has not been able
to furnish the Supplemental List for that Parish, but expressing the
hope that the same will be ready by the end of the present week.
Resolved unanimously—
That the attention of the Overseers of Fulham be called to the
importance of their delivering the Supplemental Valuation List to
the Committee with the least possible delay, and to the serious
responsibility which devolves upon the Parish in the event of
insufficient time being left to the Committee for the giving of the
legal notices and the hearing of objections to the List before the
31st proximo.
23 Oct., 1888. Read another letter from the Vestry Clerk of the Parish of
Fulham, stating that in consequence of pressure of business he is
unable to attend the Meeting of the Committee this morning, and
that he hopes to complete the Supplemental Valuation List this week.
Resolved unanimously—
That this Meeting at its rising be adjourned to Thursday, 25th
instant, at 12 o'clock (noon), and that a special request be addressed
to the Churchwardens and Overseers of the Parish of Fulham to
meet and confer with the Committee on the subject of liability of
advertising on Hoardings to parochial rating, and the position in
which the Parish is placed by reason of the non-deposit of the
Supplemental Valuation List for the current year.
25 Oct. 1888. The Committee then had an interview with Messrs. W. Hunt,
Churchwarden, Goodacre, Howland, and Baxter, Overseers, C. J.
Foakes, Vestry Clerk, and J. G. Hall, Assessing Surveyor of the
Parish of Fulham, and discussed with them the question of the
Valuation of the several Advertising Hoardings inserted by the
Overseers in the 15th Provisional List for Fulham Parish, and also
the question of the non-delivering to the Committee of the
Supplemental Valuation List for that Parish.
