The members of the Board of Works for 1926, have {n view the passing of a building by-law, which will tend to have new houses erected in the city, in uniform with other houses in the same block, with no ij | encroachments on city property. Ald. Boyd brought the matter to the attention of the Board, at its in- augural meeting on Wednesday afternoon, and it was given much discussion, and the general opinion | of the committee was that such a by- law would be in the best interests of the city. It was pointed out that at the present time, new houses are erected which extend farther out to the street line than the houses close by, and therefore are a great set- ll! back to the other property, and at the same time do an injury to the newly ereeted houses. Cases were pointed out around the city where this is the case, and it was felt that some action should be taken. Legis- lation will have to be secured for | the passing of the by-law proposed. Ald. Reid brought the same mat- ter up last year, and at the time city clerk Dr. Sands wrote to several cities, and is now in possession of data regarding by-laws enforced in these places, and this information will be provided special committee composed of Alds. Holder, Boyd, city clerk and the city engineer, will go into the matter and the city solicitor wil be asked to draft a by-law, J. B. Walkem, K.C., wrote the board regarding a claim for damages from John Ashley, who had his cel- lar flooded as a result of an over- flow of thewaawer on King street west. The matter was reférred to the city solicitor and the engineer. The question of the opening up of North Macdonell street was referred to the chairman and the engineer for a report. Some time ago the board moved to have the Anglin Lumber Company remove the lumber stored on Bay street, but it was reported, that the lumber has not yet been removed, although the matter was placed in the hands of the city solicitor. The board instructed the chairman and the engineer to Interview the city solicitor in regard to the matter. The chairman, Ald. Price, presid- ed at the meeting, and the otHér members present were Mayor An- grove, Alds. Carson, Sargent, Boyd and Holder.
