Limitations of private water cistern and walls near Damascus Gate
The road leading to Shaykh Jarrâh Road, known as Tulûl Al-Masâbin, is eight arms length from one side and seven arms length from the other, and since Mr. Rashîd Kamâl and his brother Dâwûd want to build a water well and a wall on their land, which is located outside Damascus Gate next to the mentioned road, the council has decided to build the mentioned wall on a level line, to make the mentioned road eight and a half arms’ length. This means that Mr. Rashîd should leave half an arm’s length from the roadside that measures eight arms length, and one and half arms’ length from the roadside that measures seven arms’ length to make the road eight and a half arms length. This decision has been issued on the 25th of Tishrîn Thânî (1)314 (7th of December 1898).
