MUNICIPAL MEETING - SALTCOATS
Provost McIsaac presiding.
It was unanimously agreed that a telegram be sent to Hon. T. Cochrane, M.P., for North Ayrshire, urging him to support the amendment to the Local Government Bill for placing police burghs in the same position as royal burghs without regard to population.
After a lively discussion the Commissioners decided by a majority not to petition in favour of the licensing powers being placed in the hands of magistrates in police burghs.
A communication was read from the Parochial Board asking payment of the price for the hospital with interest from Whitsunday. The negotiations with the burgh of Ardrossan as to the hospital (which has been purchased jointly by the two burghs) are presently at a standstill, but it was agreed to consider the question at a special meeting on Monday next.
