At the December gathering of the St Albans Progress Association members sought a reduction in per room electricity charges to 1 per month matching the metropolitan rate. The Commission rejected the move noting St Albans lies outside the metropolitan area and highlighting low houses per mile of reticulation. They urged greater development to lower tariffs. The group also asked Keilorshire council to extend street lighting to 12.45 am to cover late train travelers.
