Water supply calm despite growth concerns at Horsham
Twenty five years ago the Minister for Water Supply reassured there was ample water for the state. Loke Lonsdale recorded 24,0041 and War costs for full 2 acre feet. Apple shipments continued to Quantong for export. Hospital carnival proceeds projected between £1000 and £1109. A debate over gas versus electric lighting for Horsham District Hospital concluded with a casting vote in favor of electric installation at £16 per year for three years after an equal vote. The May Park quarry site dispute was resolved with land transferred to the borough council.
