Description

Unique IDA-00312264SeriesLetters Received [Municipal Council of Sydney]DateBetween 17th January 1887 and 24th January 1887Date qualifierexactFormatVolume - HardcoverDescriptionLetter: John Goddard, Mayor, Macdonaldtown Municipal Council, requesting permission for his contractor to dump the municipalities night soil at the Moore Park Depot until the Government assigned them a depot. Inspector of Nuisances objected most strongly to this suggestion on the grounds of the unhealthiness of the size of the cesspit which would be created within the city boundaries and that suburban municipalities would not be so assiduous in pressing for their own depot. The Mayor decided that he could not agree to the request and Mr Goddard was informed accordingly.LanguageEnglish (eng)Digitised recordYesGeographic location^[1] Last edited by: Lorraine Sketch
