TAURANGA NOTES
A special meeting of the Tauranga Borough Council was held on Wednesday evening. The engineer’s salary was increased from £650 to £750. A. motion by the Mayor, Mr. B. C. Robbins, to erect a concrete two-storey building for the electric department and public library was carried. The work of improving the main highway through the town, for which a loan was recently carried, is to be started on November 1. The council has always done housewiring in the past. It was decided to discontinue the practice and to confine activities to the trading and service departments. The Fire Underwriters’ Association advised that a number of electric installations were faulty, and the engineer was instructed to attend to them.
