REPORT, 1887-8.
XVIII.— REPORT OF THE SURVEYOR.
The following Report on the Paving, Sewers,
Lighting, and other works carried out during the year
ending March 25th, 1888, was submitted to the
Vestry by the Surveyor, Mr. George Weston, and
ordered to be included in the Annual Report of the
Vestry:—
Vestry Hall, Paddington,
June 8th, 1888.
To the Vestry of Paddington.
Gentlemen,
I have to submit my Annual Report of the
various works that have been executed, and other
matters relating thereto, during the year ended Ladyday,
1888.
The Vestry decided on the 5th of April, 1887, to
amalgamate the Highway and General Purposes
Committees with a view of discontinuing the dual
control that had existed for the past twelve years, and
the year's working clearly shows the advantage of this
arrangement, a saving of over £1,634 having been
effected, when compared with the previous year's
working.
