Director of Public Works, Mr. Ede stated that the promoter

was prepared to construct the road if the reservation were

granted at a premium of 1 cent per foot. The premium re-

quired by the Government is at the rate of $500 per acre,

which is to all intents and purposes 1 cent a foot.

In reply

dated 9th March, 1912, to a minute by Sir F.Lugard of 8th

March, 1912, Mr.Ede stated that he was informed that the

approximate cost of an unmetalled road would not exceed

$6,000. All that the Goverment now requires therefore is

that the promoters should contribute $6,000 to the cost of

the road. The amendment of this condition therefore camot

be accepted.

(H) The first portion of this condition is intended to

provide for the construction and maintenance by the promoters

of all drains within the boundaries of the lots. This is in

accordance with the practice under which all lessees of

Crown Land have to construot and maintain their own drains.

The Goverment cannot agree therefore to bear four-fifths

of the cost of such drains.

In Mr. Ede's reply of 15th March, 1912, referring to

the main sewer (estimated to cost $8,000) from the reserva-

tion to connect with the city sewerage system he stated

"the promoter has included the opt of the in his estimate,

and this will therefore not fall on the Goverment." It was

assumed therefore that if Mr.Ede had provided for the

construction of the main sewer he had also made provision in

his estimate for the general sewerage work throughout the

reservation. The Government therefore cannot accept the

proposal that four-fifths of the cost of the sewerage

should fall on the Government

together with the whole cost
