Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Local Development Law: A Survey of the Powers of Local Authorities in Regard to Housing, Roads, Lands, Buildings Town Planning
The following pages are intended to cover the whole ground, but they do not profess to deal exhaustively with the matters of which they treat I have often crossed out what I had written when it seemed on second thoughts to enter into too great detail my object has been to emphasize the points which would be generally regarded as important and to give references by which any one can find out more fully whatever he wants to know.
I hope, therefore, that this book may be useful, not only to the public and to county and borough and district councillors, but also to those who are professionally concerned in these matters. As regards the latter I may claim some experience, and have at least had every opportunity of forming an opinion as to what it is that many of them want to know and cannot find out.
The subject here treated is not, of course, the whole sphere of local government, but the group of powers bearing on the laying out and develop ment and improvement of towns and country districts, and no attempt is made to deal with the subject except in its legal aspect.
