Land conflict relegated to the Sanjak Administrative Council, 25 April 1892 (Gregorian calendar) - 13 Nîsân 1308 (Ottoman fiscal calendar (Rumi)

The narrowness of the road, which is four arşın in width, leading to the Hazret-i Ukâşe (Radıyallahu Anh) Street at the Jaffa macadam, causes troubles for passersby. In accordance with the first article of the Public Buildings Regulations in effect as regards this matter, it has been considered necessary to expand the width of this road to eight arşın. The third and eighth articles of the Public Buildings Regulation incorporate the provision of taking an equal –half-and-half– size of land from both sides of the road, should the need arise for expansion; determination of the roads to be re-opened and/or the estimated expansion of current roads by the municipal council; and execution of the requirements by the Administrative Council. On one side of the aforementioned road lies the land of Set Şarlota and Hovace David Kokya, and on the other side lies the land of Monsieur Hayim Valirv. In the construction permit granted by our Council, it is stipulated that two arşın must be partitioned from the land of Set Şarlota for new buildings to be constructed. Hence, a map is enclosed herewith, which indicates the need for a partition of two arşın also from the lands of aforesaid David and Valirv. For further action, it is appropriate to relegate the matter to the Sanjak Administrative Council. The 13th of Nîsân (1)308 (25th of April 1892).

Item of Vaccine ; Number: 500 ; Price: 5 ; Total (piasters): 2,500
Vaccinator’s salary ; Number: 40 ; Price: 300 (per each) x 40=12,000 ; Total: 12,000 x 3(months) = 36,000
Total (piasters): 38,500
Distribution of Costs
From the Income of Jerusalem Municipality
From the Income of Jaffa Municipality
From the Income of Gaza Municipality
From the Income of Ramallah Municipality
From the Income of Khalil Municipality
As stated in the second appendix of the above-mentioned municipality doctor, it has been understood that there is a need for 38,500 piasters for the vaccination of all children within the Sanjak of Jerusalem. The sum of money to be spent for vaccination is specified above, as distributed according to the income of each kaza municipality. This decree requires that the cost of vaccination of the children living in kazas with a lesser municipality income be covered by other kazas with more municipality income. Thus, as the incomes of the municipalities of Ramla and Hebron do not suffice for the vaccination of the inhabitants of the villages belonging to these kazas, it is necessary to purchase the required item of vaccines and to send vaccinators. Although it has been considered that the sum of money allocated to each municipality to cover this expense should be sent to the sanjak center for approval, it is appropriate to relegate the matter to the Sanjak Administrative Council for re-discussion. The 13th of Nîsân (1)308 (25th of April 1892).

Notification of a decision about tax fees, 2 May 1892 (Gregorian calendar) - 20 Nîsân 1308 (Ottoman fiscal calendar (Rumi)

As the said post are carried by their contractors on lump sum basis, their horse carriages have never been exempted from road tax in any year. It has been investigated why they do not pay the required road tax while they have to pay it like other rental carriages and it turned out that this situation arose from a warning made by the consulate of the state of Austria and Hungary via the Mail and Telegraph Directorate. With an official letter, it is appropriate to notify the Austrian Consulate via the Mail and Telegraph Directorate that the said road tax be paid by the carriage owners as before.

Budget matter relegated to the Sanjak Administrative Council, 2 May 1892 (Gregorian calendar) - 20 Nîsân 1308 (Ottoman fiscal calendar (Rumi)

In the reply given by the Head of the Public Works Engineering to the question raised before, it was stated that there was a need for 60,000 piasters as respected current akçe for the reparation and arrangement of the said macadam. In the budget of 1308 (1892-1893), only 50,000 piasters were reserved to be spent for general roads outside the kaza of Jerusalem. On the other hand, with regard to the cost of water to be given to the municipal hospital, the fact that water is sold at a high price due to the increasing structuring this year shows that there is a need for a higher amount than the ascertained one. Therefore, it has been considered that there would be less expense if the part of macadam, which is now being repaired, is completed and the other part is temporarily improved. It is appropriate to relegate the matter to the Sanjak Administrative Council to discuss whether the road reparation can be done in this way or not. The 20th of Nîsân (1)308 (2nd of May 1892).
