All connections (from private properties) within the street are
constructed by the Vestry at the expense of the owners, the sum
of £171 7s. 2d. being receivable in respect thereof for work at the
before mentioned premises.
The number of plans deposited for amended house drainage has
materially increased, by reason of the Vestry's resolution that a
house to house inspection of all Sanitary works on private
properties throughout the parish be made. This necessarily
entailed a very large increase of both the office and outdoor work.
