Sydney Cleansing Costs Compared With Melbourne
Town Clerk Nesbitt told Evening News that Sydney city cleansing costs for 1907 were likely lower than 1905 and 1906 after accounting for new footway cleaning begun in 1907. He noted Melbourne’s loads and tonnage versus Sydney and warned that figures vary with included items and that lane cleaning in 1907 would raise future costs.
