PAPATOETOE WATER SUPPLY
The total commitments against the water loan for the reticulation of the Papatoetoe Town District are £26,443. The figures submitted by the water engineer at Tuesday’s meeting of the board include £ 600, the cost of the well at the foot of McLaughlan’s Mountain.
The clerk was instructed to advise the engineer that the board did not consider itself liable for the extra primage duty charged to the contractor by the suppliers. The superintendent of the fire brigade reported that the distance between the fire hydrants in the business area had been exceeded, and under certain conditions would necessitate the use of 2,000 feet of . hose. The engineer said that the contractor had been notified of the error, and he was instructed to advise the contractor to rectify the mistake at his own expense.
