“I was along one of the borough streets the other day and noticed that it had a very fine sealed footpath, but only one or two houses just recently erected, whereas there are other streets with no footpath worth calling one, and houses that have been erected for many years. The occupants have been paying rates all those years, while the owners of the newly-built-on land had been getting off cheaply, as the block was not subdivided.”—This was the comment of a townsman when discussing the Borough Council’s policy of street improvements.
