5. The occupier of any premises or any other person shall
not obstruct or interfere with the owner of such premises, or
with any person duly authorised by him in that behalf, in the
execution of any work to which the foregoing Bye-laws relate.
Penalties.
G. Every person who shall offend against any of the foregoing
bye-laws shall be liable for every such offence to a penalty
of five pounds, and in the case of a continuing offence to a further
penalty of forty shillings for each day after written notice of the
offence from the Sanitary Authority.
Provided, nevertheless, that the justices or court before
whom any complaint may be made or any proceedings may be
taken in respect of any such offence may, if they think fit,
adjudge the payment as a penalty of any sum less than the full
amount of the penalty imposed by this Bye-law.
DUST REMOVAL.
Under their contract with the Vestry the Dust Contractors
are required to send a cart, or carts, into every street
in the Parish on every week day. If any difficulty is
experienced in obtaining a removal of refuse, application
should be made at the Vestry Hall.
The removal of house refuse would be greatly facilitated
by the general adoption of portable dust receptacles. These
should not on any account be placed in the street, but kept
within the householder's premises in some convenient place
readily accessible to the dustmen. They should not be so
large as not to admit of being taken up by a man unaided.
The refuse would thus be removed bodily and speedily,
avoiding the dirt and unpleasantness inseparable from the
system of transferring the contents of a dustbin to a basket
for removal.
