(157) I would suggest the following rule as applicable to local conditions; though they do not provide all that might be desired, they will be an improvement on existing conditions while they will not unduly restrict the utilisation of space.
158 (1) In case of courts or spaces wholly enclosed by dwellings, and not being in the form of a continuous alley, the communication from the public street or from a private lane to them being through a covered passage, the minimum open space to be one hundred and fifty square feet and that it shall be equal to one fifth of the total roofed over area for buildings not exceeding 24 feet in height and one fourth for buildings more than 24 feet high.

(2) In cases where the space takes the form of a continuous alley at the back of a row of buildings, a smaller space may be permitted, the alley to have a minimum width of 4 feet for a house not exceeding 15 feet high. If the house be more than 16 and less than 24 feet high, then 5 feet. If more than 24 and less than 32 feet, 6 feet; upwards of 32 feet, 7 feet.
