CORNWALLIS WHARF
EXTENSION ASKED FOR * The Waitemata County Council wrote to the Harbour Board yesterday asking that Cornwallis Wharf should bo extended in order that it might be used at all states of the tide, and stating that it would be prepared to contribute £IOO toward the cost of he work. The engineer. Mr. D. Holderness. reported that in order to make the wharf available at all states of the tide it would be necessary to extend it another 335 ft, at an approximate cost of £670. The request was referred to the Manukau Harbour Committee, the chairman stating the work would be carried out if the cost did not prove prohibitive. The engineer was instructed to report upon the erection of a break -wind or other protection along the western edge of the new reclamation at Bayswater, which was urged in a letter from the Bayswater-Eelmont Progressive Association.
