REPORT.
Vestry Hall, Paddington;
June, 1862.
Gentlemen,
In compliance with the requirements
of the 196th Section of the "Metropolis Local
Management Act,” I have the honor to submit my
Sixth Annual Report of the Works executed in
the Sewers Department from the 25th of March,
1861, to the 25th of March, 1862, inclusive.
During the past year forty-four Notices have
been received for the erection of 144 New Buildings,
viz.:—one Synagogue, 132 Houses and eleven
Stables, in compliance with the requirements of
the 76th Section of the "Metropolis Local Management
Act”; and thirty-four applications have been
made and granted, for the re-construction of Drains
under the public footpaths and roadways to forty
Houses and Premises. These were rendered
necessary in consequence of Notices issued by the
Sanitary and Public Health Committee, or were
executed at the suggestion of the Owners of the
respective Buildings.
