DRAINAGE AT LOWER HUTT
- Permits for house sewerage connections issued to/date in tower Htitt, .under, the drainage and sanitary by-laws, number 711. There- are 970 water services in the borough. A number of < ratepayers have failed to connect up' their premises with • the sewage scheme. This led Councillor Hodgins to speak on the matter.' at a Borough Council meeting some weeks ago, with the result -tliat the town clerk was instructed to 'prepare a list of thqse who had failed in this respect. Forty-six' notices wore later sent out to the offenders, and at this week!s meeting of the council replies were received in sixteen of these cases. The Works Committee 'is to furnish areport on the matter atA. a later - date. The engineer expects that in less than three weeks the drainage scheme will be completed as far 'as' the loan' money authorised by -the ratepayers some months ago will allow. At Monday's meeting of the council he I , reported that 'at about the ' middle of this • Week the &e\ver in Park-avenue would be completed. The house .connections were' bein^ put in now, and -the whole would be completed together. He proposed to do Old Military-road next. The cost of- the I tfork was still, he believed, ' well within the estimate. , !
