| Description: |
Folios 20-21. To: The Local Government Act Office. From: William Toy, Clerk to the Hurst Local Board, 154 Stamford Street, Ashton-under-Lyne, [Lancashire]. A letter informing the Office that the Local Board recently summoned two ratepayers for non-payment of their General District Rate. Before the Justices, the defendants' solicitors stated that their clients were not bound to pay the Rate because the Hurst Board did not have a District with a defined boundary. Toy disputed this. He relates that the ratepayers in question have just been included in a Highway District which takes in a portion of the Hurst Board's District - having paid a Highway Rate they declined to pay the Hurst Board's Rate. Toy asks whether the Home Secretary might be able to make a Provisional Order legally defining the Hurst Board's District. |
