My Committee are not prepared to state whether the
$250,000 asked for will be considered a satisfactory sum for
the purchase of their property by the owners of the 39 sets of
moorings referred to by His Excellency, but they consider that
in view of the financial condition of this Colony so large a
sum should not be spent on a scheme which is opposed by the
British Shinning, the Chamber of Commerce and the unofficial
members of the Legislative Council.
The sum of $10,000 for annual up-keep, renewal,
repairs, and running expenses apdars far too low, especially
when it is understood this is to cover the cost of raising each
set of moorings once in four years only.
The charges for the use of the moorings as proposed
in your letter under reply are presumably calculated to bring
in sufficient revenue to cover all expenses including interest
on the capital invested.
So far as my Committee can work this out, these charges
even if maintained, will result in a considerably heavier annual expenditure to the slips using the moorings than is now incurred i
under the private ownership system.
If as my Committee are inclined to believe, the annual
expenses have been much underestimated, they fear that before
long the charges will be increased.
In view of the excessive amount of foggy or misty
weather and heavy rains which are experienced here for so large a part of the year, my Committee do not consider any system of signalling from the Harbour Master's Office or from any other point, such as for example one or other of the light-houses, could be relied upon as a sure means of informing the Commander
