BYE-LAWS OF THE INCORPORATED TOWN OF MILTON.—1867.

WHEREAS an Act of the General Assembly of
New Zealand intituled "The Otago Municipal Corporations Empowering Act, 1865," and described
as an Act to confer certain powers and authorities on the
Corporation of the City of Dunedin, and other towns
and places incorporated under an Ordinance of the
Superintendent and Provincial Council of the Province
of Otago, intituled "The Otago Municipal Corporations
Ordinance, 1865," contains provisions in clauses
XXXVIII and XXXIX for making Bye-laws on the
subjects authorised by the Schedule A annexed to the
said Act: And whereas the Town of Milton has been
incorporated under the said Ordinance, and is entitled
to enjoy all the privileges of the same: And whereas it
is expedient to make provision by Bye-Laws for regulating the various matters connected with the said town:
Be it therefore ordered and directed by the Council of
the Incorporated Town of Milton, by virtue of the authority in them vested, that from and after the day on
which these Bye-Laws shall have been confirmed by the
Superintendent, with the advice and consent of his
Executive Council, and published in the Otago Provincial Government Gazette, the said Bye-Laws shall have
force within the said Town of Milton.

Bye-Law No. 1.—REGULATION OF FOOTPATHS.

It shall not be lawful to drive or permit any cattle,
horses, carts, or carriages to enter upon or travel along
any footpath or footpath formation within the incorporated Town of Milton, or to cross the said footpaths at
other than authorised crossings; and the owners of any
cattle and horses straying upon the footpaths shall be
deemed to have committed an offence against this Bye-Law.

Bye-Law No. 2.—STREETS.

It shall not be lawful to obstruct the streets or footpaths by depositing or leaving thereon any goods, firewood, coals, or other articles any longer time than may
be necessary to receive or despatch, or in cases where
they are heavy or bulky, to pack or unpack the same.
All rubbish connected with such receiving, packing, or
unpacking, to be carefully removed from any footpath,
gutter, or street by the parties using the same. All
crossings to be authorised by the Council, and to be
formed by or at the expense of the parties requiring the
same, to the satisfaction of the Town Surveyor for the
time being. Crossings to private property not to exceed
ten feet along the footpath, and where the traffic is not
great may be formed of an extra coat of gravel on the
footpath, and the gutter to be pitched with stone or
not as the Surveyor may direct. Where there is much
traffic, as at stores, hotels, and yards, the footpath to be
macadamised or pitched with stone, and the gutter
pitched with stone.

Crossings opposite hotels and places of business may
be formed the whole breadth of said premises, and may
be crossed in any part, but it shall not be lawful to
leave animals or carriages upon the footpaths so as to
be an obstruction thereon.

Crossings in back streets where the kerbing exceeds
14 inches in height to have a sufficient box to carry the
water in the gutter, and crossings to be made over said
box, which is to be furnished by the party requiring
the same.

Bye-Law No. 3.—DRAINS (PRIVATE).

Whereas the Drains formed by the Corporation along
the course of the former open ditches on both sides of
the Main South Road, in the incorporated town of
Milton, with their extensions to their own proper outfalls, are of such dimensions only as to provide for the
drainage of the lands immediately adjoining, by filtration, on the principle that is usually followed in draining fields: It is therefore ordered and declared that the
said drains shall not be deemed sewers.

It shall not be lawful for any person to directly
introduce any running water, sewage, or other liquids
into the said drains.

It shall be lawful for parties requiring water to be
carried off their properties which cannot be raised so as
to be discharged into the open gutters or channels, to
give notice to the Town Surveyor (or the person acting
in that capacity for the time being), and under his
direction, and at their own costs and charges, to make
such drains or cuttings as may be necessary to communicate with the said Corporation Drains: Provided
always that a sufficient length of the said drains,
beginning from the Corporation Drains shall be filled
with a filtering medium, consisting of broken stones,
washed gravel, or any other substance that may be
approved of by the said Surveyor, sufficient to intercept
all matter that might stop or fill up the said Corporation
Drains: And it shall be lawful for the said Surveyor,
if he shall have reason to think that the said filtering
medium is not acting properly, to have the said drain
opened, and if he find it necessary, to have the same
put in good repair, the costs and charges to be paid by
the parties for whose benefit it is done.

Bye-Law No. 4.—FIRES.

Whereas great danger to life and property in the
incorporated Town of Milton arises from making fires
in the open air, in the stacking of hay and straw in
situations where it would be liable to ignition, and in
the careless use of lights and matches: Be it therefore
ordered and directed that from and after the coming
into force of this Bye-Law no fires shall be made in
