providing the cost did not exceed $733.00. The Department when interviewed
again :Last tfeamesday the fourth inst., agreed to assume 70% of the cost of
construction or instal.lation and also of maintenance, and Mr Smith the
Ifighway Engineer thought he might prevail. on the Committee to assume 20~
o:r the cost of maintenance, which woul.d leave a balance of 10"/d o:f the coat

SEWAGE CONNECTION AT GOODISON PLANT. I J.nterviewed the lll!a.nager at the
Goodison Plant and he had not the pl.~ ready for the plant, but from. the
informatiollll I received, I am of the opinion that we can service the plant
reasoJOO.bl.y well• as they propose to buil.d the J.ower floor on a J.evel with the
C.N.R.tracks:. thereby the sewage mains wil.l not "require to be so deep, there-
fore the connections we have may be deep enough. However I said as soon as
they have their plans drawn , submit them to us and we will endeavour to
give them. serwice.AJ.l of which is rea~eeftil!e:r,. respectful.J.v suliu!dtted.
