No action was taken by the board in
relation to the bill repeating the water
frontage tax. Under the new law the
repeal does not take effect until 1899.
and as there is to be another session
Of the legislature in that year, there
is a possibility that the law may be
again changed. President Bement, in
speaking of the repeal of the water
frontage tax, said the action taken by
the board in reducing rates would show
to the consumers that they would not
suffer owing to the law passed by the
legislature In the future, he added,
there would be no extension of water
mains until the money. which the
mains would cost, had been laid down
in advance.
