A couple of years before the outbreak of the war the city council amended the bylaw governing bill and sign boards to provide that in business districts these must be set back at least three feet from the property line and in residential districts at least seventeen feet from the property, line After that most of the new bill boards -which were erected in .various portions of the city were so placed as to conform with the amended regulations, but very few, if any, of the old boards were removed or changed to correspond with the bylaw. The owners or lessees of the bill boards were notified and given six months to make the necessary changes, Then came the outbreak of war, and .under the plea that they were, being put to heavy expense at a time of great financial stringency and that their revenue from advertising had ;dropped to nothing, the city council gave the I bill board owners and bill posting} firms until the end of the war make the necessary changes. site on which to rebuild the Morrison Wire-& Steel works recently destroyed by fire. Tlie company has leased lots on Industrial Island and will very shortly erect a temporary building to house their machinery while plans for an up-to-date factory, on a much larger scale than the onerdestroyed by fire are being prepared. Further details will be published in these columns in the near future. The location of this industry on Industrial Island adds another to the already imposing list of establishments located on this tract. NOTICE TO CONTRACTORS.

Title | British Columbia Record |
Publisher | Vancouver : Record Publishing Company |
Date Issued | 1919-01-31 |
Description | The British Columbia Record was published in Vancouver, and ran from June 1916 to July 1922. The Record was published every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. As the official publication for the Architectural Institute of B.C., the B.C. Builders’ Exchange, and the Building and Construction Industries’ Exchange of B.C., the Record primarily covered news related to building, contracting, engineering, real estate, and industrial finance. The Record was published by the Record Publishing Company, which had previously published the paper under a number of different titles, including the Daily Building Record and the British Columbia Building Record. The Record subsequently evolved into the Journal of Commerce. |
