- Commissioners_of_Scotland_Yard abstract "The Commissioners of Scotland Yard was the informal name for the Commissioners for the Streets and Wayes, a body of improvement commissioners established in 1662 to manage and regulate various areas relating to streets and traffic in the cities of London and Westminster and the borough of Southwark. They were appointed under a 1662 Act of the Parliament of England (14 Car. 2 c. 2) which expired in 1679. The Commissioners' office was attached to that of the Surveyor of the King's Works in Scotland Yard.The 1662 Act empowered the king to appoint up to 21 commissioners, who were authorised to: Determine encroachments by buildings onto the highway Manage the repair and paving of specific streets, including Pall Mall Enlarge various other specific streets, including St Martins Lane, and to demolish existing buildings where necessary and compensate the owners Levy charges on each householder to fund repair, paving and enlargement work License, tax and set maximum fares for hackney carriages Charge duty on hay and straw sold in city streetsTo combat an apparent problem with people throwing coal ashes into the street, the act also required every person in London, Westminster, Southwark and surrounding suburbs to sweep the area in front of their house \"... every Wednesday and every Saturday in the Weeke\". The act also prohibited the hooping of barrels and sawing of stones or rough timber in the streets. Rakers and scavengers were to use \"... a Bell Horne Clapper or otherwise [and] shall make distinct and loud noise and give notice to the Inhabitants of theire coming ...\" so \"... that all persons concerned may bring forth theire respective Ashes Dust Dirt Filth and Soil to the respective Carts or Carriages\". These scavengers were to be elected according to existing customs, and within 20 days rubbish collection rates (to be paid quarterly) were to be set by churchwardens and other leaders of the parish.Under the act, \"... from Michaelmas untill our Lady day ...\" (29 September – 25 March) from dusk to 9 p.m. every householder was required to place a candle or lantern outside \"... his house next the street to enlighten the same for Passengers ...\". The act also ratified a decision by sewer commissioners on 8 August 1661 to construct two new sewers to drain the area near the Palace of Whitehall.After the Great Fire of London in 1666, several Acts to promote rebuilding vested the power of paving and sewer maintenance within the city solely in its Corporation. This restricted the Scotland Yard Commissioners to areas outside the City, and the 1662 Act was \"allowed to expire\" in 1679. A 1690 Act of Parliament imposed sanitation requirements on the districts around London similar to those of the 1662 Act, but did not revive the Commissioners.Instead, powers of enforcing compliance were given to the justices of the peace. Sewerage in Westminster was transferred to the existing Westminster and Middlesex Commission of Sewers.".
