DENBIGH TOWN COUNCIL. The quarterly meeting of the Denbigh Town Council was held yesterday (Thurs- day), the Mayor (Alderman J Humphrey J ones) presiding. There were also pre- sent:—Aldermen James Hughes, Boaz Jones, and Robert Owen Councillors H D Hughes, F B Clough, Charles Cottom, A Lloyd Jones, Robert Lloyd, John Edgar; with the town clerk, Mr J Parry Jones the deputy town clerk, Mr Edward Parry the accountant, Mr Ellis Williams; and the inspector, Mr Lee Jones. Apologies for absence were received from Councillors J Morris Davies and T Lloyd Jones and the Surveyor was also excused. MONTH'S CASH AND PAYMENTS. On the motion of Councillor Cottom, chairman of the Finance Committee, an order on the Treasurer was passed for X150 for the month's petty cash and wages, and also the further amount re- quired for the payment of the scheduled bills. HIGHWAY COMMITTEE EXCEED THEIR POWER. FOEL GASYTH QUARRY. It was reported that at a meeting of the Highway, &c., Committee, May 4th, present: Mr Boaz Jones (chairman), the Mayor, Messrs H D Hughes, a Lunt Griffiths, and Robert Lloyd, Tenders were submitted for a driving belt for the stone breaker, and it was re- solved that Mr A Lloyd Jones' tender for a leather belt for the sum of R5 16s be ac- cepted. Further correspondence was submitted as to the repair of the road from Ffolt to the Borough boundry, and it was resolved that the Rnthin District Council be given the extra 25 to 50 loads they ask for, and also that the steam roller be lent to the District Council to roll in the stones. Mr J Morris Owen wrote asking if the Council would lend him the sanitary tumbler oart daring the military encamp- ment at Caerwys.—-Resolved that it be hired to him for 15 days for the sum of YI. Alderman Boaz Jones moved, and Coun- cillor H D Hughes seconded, the adoption of the report. In compliance with a request from Alderman James Hughes, the Town Clerk read the correspondence that had taken place since the last meeting between the Council and the Ruthin District Council in reference to the Foel Gasyth quarry road. Alderman James Hughes pointed out that when he proposed the resolution adopted by the Highway Committee in reference to the quantity of stone to be given and that the steam roller should be lent, he understood that would meet the Ruthin Council and that all the incidental expenses thereto should be borne by the Ruthin Council. Now it seemed that the Town Council would have to undertake the whole of the expenses, and he protested against it. The Ruthin District Council was responsible for some of the damage to the road, but now by this resolution of the Highway Committee the Town Council would have to supply the macadam and the steam roller and pay Xll in addition to this expense, and he most certainly objected to it. Alderman Boaz Jones said this matter was thoroughly considered by the High- way Committee, who, on account of the urgency of the matter, had already put their decision in operation as shewn in the correspondence. Councillor Clough But the Committee had no power to act. Alderman James Hughes strongly pro- tested against the concessions proposed to, be made to the Ruthin Council and thought the resolution of the Committee should be amended so as to exclude the carting of the stone. Alderman Robert Owen said he did not agree with Mr James Hughes in this matter. The District Council could not possibly have damaged the road, because they had no cartage that way. Councillor Cottom said that it was stated in a discussion on this subject at the Ruthin District Council, on Monday, that the Denbigh Town Council were bear- ing the whole cost of the repair of this road. Alderman James Hughes moved that the Council do not pay for the cartage of the stone. Councillor A Lloyd Jones seconded that and considered they were too liberal to the Ruthin Council. The Mayor We have already decided to do so. The Town Clerk said the resolution of the Committee had been sent to the Ruthin Council and was being acted upon. Alderman James Hughes But the Com- mittee should not have acted in the matter without the consent of the Council; their resolution is not binding until sanctioned by the Council. The Mayor explained that the matter was so urgent that the Committee thought fit to act without first getting the consent of the Council. Councillor Clough But you have no right to do that. Alderman James Hughes No, and it means knuckling down to the District Conncil all along the line. They are crowing over as on this account. I think the Committee have treated them too handsomely (hear, hear). The Mayor said that if they had acted generously they could always say that they bad repaired the road well. Alderman James Hughes It is setting a precedent, and the Committee had no right to act without the confirmation of the Council (hear, hear). Alderman Boaz Jones thought the Com- mittee had dealt very conscientiously in the matter. If the District Council had done the work they could have charged the Corporation, and that would have meant greater expense. Alderman James Hughes: And I am afraid that it will cost more than the original estimate. Eventually it was decided to adopt the report of the Committee on the under- standing that similar action should not be I taken in future Councillor Cottom re- marking, the Committee are found guilty this time you must take care you don't do it again (laughter). HIGHWAY COMMITTEE. MAIN ROADS. STONE-BREAKING WHARF. DISCUSSION AS TO SHOP WINDOW. The report of the meeting of the High- way, &o„ Committee, held May 18th, stated-Present: Mr Boaz Jones (chair- man), the Mayor, Messrs H D Hughes, J Morris Davies, S Lont Griffiths, and Robert Lloyd. Apologies for non-attendanoe were re- ceived from Messrs James Hughes and J H Wynne. The Inspector submitted his monthly re- port. It was resolved that the owner of the New Ion, Henllan, be permitted to construct two new pigstyes, subjeot to proper drainage been provided. That official notice be served on the oocopier of No. 9, Panton-hall, to abate the nuisance on his premises caused by keeping fowls and ducks. That a new sanitary cart with cover be purchased, subject to the carting contractor reducing his price per day for a horse and man, and that tenders be invited to be submitted to this Committee. A letter was read from Mr Roberts, of Foxhall, withdrawing his application that he should be oharged a lump sum per annum instead of by meter indication for the supply of water to Foxhall, &c. The Clerk of the County Council wrote that the special committee could not recommend the County Council to comply with the Town Council's application that certain highways should be mained. Plans were submitted by Mr W Gough Roberts for a new shop front, including a bay window, to the old pork shop in Vale- street, but after inspection this Committee do not reoommend that the same be ap- proved. [This was afterwards allowed by the Council.] The Committee then inspected the sites in Glas Meadows, where it was suggested a stone-breaking wharf should be oon- struoted, and, as the Committee are of opinion that the value of the land would be considerably deteriorated thereby, It was recommended that the soheme be abandoned for the present. The application of the Denbighshire Territorial Force Association for per- mission to use the old quarry in Glas Meadows for a miniature rifle range was considered, and it was recommended that, subjeot to the payment of £1 a year rent, the Council should consider the projeet, subject to full details being laid before the Council for approval. The Surveyor reported that he knew of a 12-h.p. portable engine, almost new, which might be purchased for driving the stone- breaker, and it was recommended that the Vulcan Boiler Insurance Company be aaked to send an inspector over to report noon the engine. r Alderman Boaz Jones moved, and Coun- cillor Robert Lloyd seconded, the adoption of the report. Councillor Lloyd Jones wanted to know the reason why the committee objected to the plans presented by Mr Gough Roberts for the shop front in Vale-street. Alderman Boaz Jones explained that the committee met on the spot, and were unanimously of opinion that the window should not project into the street. The Town Clerk said that, strictly speaking, these alterations could not be made without the consent of the Council, which would be signified by passing the plans. Messrs Gold Edwards & Co. had written to the effect that apart from the legal rights of the case they asked that the matter should be considered on its merits* There was no doubt that the portion over which the window would come was private property, but the owner had no right to build beyond the building line, which was the main wall of the building. The Mayor said that, in making the recommendation, the committee thought that they should not allow any encroach- ment, especially in Vale-street. The practice of encroaching had been carried on too much during the past 20 or 30 years, in such places as the Back-row, the p operty of Mr Jones, the barber, also at the bottom of the town, at the Water Offices and Drury's Hotel, and he thought the practice of encroaching on the highway was very objectionable. He would be the last one to put any obstacle in the way of any public improvement, because he be- lieved in beautifying the town of Denbigh, but to bring out property in this w., to encroach on the highway would not improve the value of these buildings. Ho should like to see a nice verandah to the shop with iron railings the same as he had done with his own premises. Councillor Oottom expressed surprise that the committee should object to these plans. He did not think that to allow the alterations according to the plans would be an encroachment on the highway, beoaase the alterations would be carried oat over the spaoe to which the owner had at present a legal right. No one couid now [ pass down the street in a straight line and pass over that portion in front of the shop belonging to the owner, beoause a huge stone projection prevented their doing so, showing that really the public had no p6wer to use it except with the consent of the owner. Thus on one side was the large slab he mentioned, and on the other side the railings in front of Mr John Davies' offiee came out much more than the front- age of this shop, so that to allow the new front as shown on the plan oertainly would not be any obstruction. 8aV* he <ltdte appreoiated what Mr Oottom had said, but they must bear in mind that they must look to the future. The King a Arms might be rebuilt in the course of taa next 20 or 30 veara and possibly put back from the street, and in that case anytlhing protruding would not add to the beauty of the street. Councillor Cottom said his contention was that, if the frontage of this shop was brought out a little, it would not cause any narrowing or obstruction of the thoroughfare the projection would be on the space belonging to the owner of the shop. The Mayor said he agreed to that, but stall, looking forward 20 or 30 years, he Xltta, not ailyiaibls alteration out. Alderman Jamea Hagbes said that in the f, arVeyor' hQ ahot*ld "ke to explain that the present front of the shoD was set back even from the building line of the adjaoent property, such as Mra Williams, the barber's shop, Mr Stephen Davies shop, Messrs Aston's shop, and considerably behind the line of the Kingvlj Arms. Councillor A Lloyd Jones considered the plan should be passed, and he moved that the whole Council in Committee fully con- sider it at the close of the business and have power to act. Councillor Coctom seconded, and it was carried. [Subseqnently the Council so considered it, and by a large majority decided to pass the plan and allow the new front as desired, i FINANCE COMMITTW J CORPORATE SEAL.
