Tamworth Council Debates Water Supply Trial

Dr Wheaton notes the town clerk’s push to locate underground water, tapping a source that halves cost from £350,000 to £175,000 compared with river water. Dr Dettmann expects basalt formations to yield a good supply, while Dr Mulligan backs a genuine council effort. The motion is supported and carried.
