Description

Unique IDA-00328852SeriesLetters Received, 1843-1899 [Municipal Council of Sydney]DateBetween 1st October 1898 and 21st October 1898Date qualifierexactFormatVolume - HardcoverDescriptionLetter: J N Eedy, Managing Director, Federal Advertising and Publishing Company, 87 Pitt Street, protesting against the refusal to allow his company to erect an advertising hoarding in Moore Street, because it exceeded the "allowed" limits when, they state [at great length], there are many advertising hoarding in the city which exceed the allowed limit. The Building Inspector points out that he cannot give permission for hoardings to be erected that do not comply with the by-laws but admits that there are many hoardings which do not comply. He points out that the by-laws are not sufficiently strong to enable him to order such hoardings to be taken down. He is advised to visit Mr Eedy to discuss the matter with him. Mr Eedy continues to protest the unfairness that those who abide by the law and seek permission are disadvantaged when it comes to their competitors who erect the hoardings illegally and against whom no proceeding are taken. He commends the courtesy shown to him by the Council employees who discussed the matter with him. Building Surveyor noted.LanguageEnglish (eng)Digitised recordYes
