r—* foIARKEb IMPROVEMENt m BUSINESS AREA PERMITS FOR ELEVEN MONTHS The value of building permits issued in Christchurch during the 11 months oi the current financial year excefeds that or the corresponding period a year previously by more than £166,000. This is shown in returns issued yesterday by the City Engineer (Mr A. R. Galbraith), for the 11 months ended February 28. Throughout this period the value of building in the suburbs and in the area of the central ward has decreased, but this decrease has been more than offset by the increase in the value of building in the business portibh of the city. During the 11 months of the current financial vear, 952 permits were issued,! their value being £645,307. From March 31, 1931 J, to February 28; 1937, 1070 pefrhits jvere issued, to a value Of £478,965. The value 6f building sb far fhJs year in the business area is £252,945.
