The Houses in the Town to be Correctly Numbered.

New York, 1895

The highway commissioners held a meeting at the Town Hall on Tuesday. Commissioner Baker presided. Permission was given A. Griffing to establish a correct system of numbering dwellings in the town, the numbering to be done according to the assessment map and to start on the Brooklyn and Jamaica road at the Kings County line, with the streets running north and south. The numbers are to be paid for by the persons who have them put on their dwellings.

John M. Zweig, overseer of road district No. 1, Woodhaven, presented a bill for work done on the roads from May 27th to June 11th, in the sum of $269.25. The commissioners will inspect the work before ordering the bill paid.
