Buildings construction, 30 January 1899 (Gregorian calendar) - 18 Kanûn Thânî 1314 (Ottoman fiscal calendar (Rumi)

This letter has been thoroughly examined by our council. There is no decision allowing buildings within the city not to be subject to the provisions of the Public Buildings Regulation. The current buildings within the city are adjacent to each other, being composed of three to four floors; therefore, until this year, the municipal council have not attempted to demolishing current buildings and taking land for the purpose of re-opening a street or expanding the current ones, or aligning them with the direction, which have led, naturally, to the implementation of the aforementioned provisions of the Public Buildings Regulation. The eighth article of the Public Buildings Regulation states that those spaces to be integrated into a road for the purpose of expansion shall be taken during a construction of buildings at both sides of the road and drawing of a boundary. It has been demanded that a part of the said spaces belonging to the Armenian Monastery be submitted for the road; however, these will form an obstacle in front of them, being thus of no use for the road; hence, if it is necessary to grant a license for their construction, a permission must be obtained by the mutasarrifate for an enactment of that copy. The 18th of Kânûn Thânî (1)314 (30th of January 1899).
