Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tenth Annual Report of the Boston Water Board: For the Year Ending December 31, 1885 The conduit across Farm pond was not completed October 1, 1885, as contracted for, and the contractors causing us great delay and annoyance, we took possession of the work December 1. We shall be able to complete it about June 1, 1886, within the appropriation. It has been our intention to complete the new High-Service Works during the year 1886, but as the contract for pumps has been declared void, a material delay must ensue. The main pipes have been purchased, and 6,500 feet were laid during the fall of 1885; the remainder will be laid the coming season. Work on the reservoir was begun in October, and is to be completed December 1, 1886. We think it unlikely that during the coming year we shall deem it necessary to undertake new work requiring any considerable outlay of money. We are investigating certain matters with respect to the condition of the aqueducts, and as to the improvement of the upper Sudbury waters, which may be developed during the coming season. On arriving at any definite conclusions, as a result of these investigations, we shall ask the City Council for the necessary appropriations. Water Rates. The estimates of expenses and revenue made at the beginning of the financial year have been confirmed by the results recorded elsewhere. According to the estimates, there would have accrued a surplus of about $120,000. As this surplus would have been taken from the consumers of water, and would have gone into the Sinking-Fund, where it is not required, we decided to reduce the water rates for 1886. The bills for the year being already prepared for issue January 1, the most practicable and convenient method of reaching this end was by ordering a discount upon the payment of bills. Such a discount, of six per cent., was accordingly ordered as to bills for water to be paid for according to schedule. The matter of reducing the meter rates is under consideration. Whatever may be the meter rates adopted, they will be based upon the idea of giving all parties a reduction equal, in percentage, to those granted to schedule takers; and, further, of making a somewhat lower rate to those who use the larger quantities. It has been decided that there is no authority for making different rates to different persons on account of the use to which water is devoted; that is to say, a hospital must pay as much as stable; a manufacturer must pay as much as hotel - quantity for quantity.
