Albany Despatch on Ulster road and Lower Stirling terrace plans
Property owners in Albany debate a proposed loan for widening Lower Stirling terrace by six feet and erecting a retaining wall, plus York Street works and Ulster road recreation ground improvements costing about 1950 to 3500 pounds. Opponents warn of high costs and wider street upkeep, urging more detailed outside estimates while supporters push to proceed with the loan. The council seeks a vote on the loan and timing for construction amid concerns over traffic, maintenance, and future town needs.
