Description | Upon the commission’s record dated 1 August 1898 and Sanjak Administrative Council’s decision dated 6 August 1898 regarding improvements Levelling of the soil and wreckage accumulated on the Waqfs’ land located at the east side of Bâbü’z-zâhire is incumbent on the Waqfs’ Accounting. Some part of the road going to the Preparatory School is paved, and the removal of this pavement will cause damage. As a result of investigation, it has also been understood that the narrowness of the roads make it difficult for carriages to turn, so it would be hard to remove their places. It has thus been considered by our council that it would better to preserve the said road as it currently is. Efforts are also rapidly made to carry our other issues incumbent on the municipality. The 5th of Agustos (1)314 (17th of August 1898). |
