20. Surveys were made in detail for plans to be attached to Crown Leases of 842 lots. These surveys entailed very accurate measurements of all boundaries, dimensions in every case being given to the nearest inch.

21. Surveys were made of several areas of various sizes for plans to be attached to deeds of surrender.
22. The boundaries of 323 areas (building lots, permit areas, quarries, etc.) were set out and the frontage lines to streets of 160 lots were checked.
