Norris. :Natters pertaininr- to the operating of the ''dater Department were discussed. In considering the report submitted some months previous by Paul- ette " `,Milson Engineers on the estimated cost of constructing and operating a water softening plant, it was the opinion of the members of both the "Plater Board and City Commissioners that the construction of such a plant probably should be withheld until such a time as the present indebtedness is retired and a sufficient surplus was built up to finance the construction, without the necessity of going in debt.
