MUNICIPAL MEETING – SALTCOATS
The following assessments were imposed: - Police, 9d per £1; water supply, 1s per £1. This is a reduction of 2d in water rate and an increase of 1d in police rate, when compared with last year.
A petition from certain inhabitants asking Commissioners to remove a wooden theatre erected at the quay, on the ground that it encroached 10 feet on the roadway, was considered.
The meeting decided in the meantime to take no action in the matter.
