The Commissioners state that they are fully impressed with the importance of both of these changes as well for the security as for the conveniency ofthe Piers, that the cost of carrying them out will be £2509 beyond the amount of appropriation, an expenditure which they believe to be necessary, and as the work is in that state that the proposed changes can just now be most economically and advantageously made, they recommend that authority be given to proceed with them.
