Corner Unwanted for Whangarei P.O.
Replying to the Whangarei Borough Council’s suggestion that the Post and Telegraph Department should take over property on the corner of Bank and Cameron Streets when proceeding with the reconstruction of the Post Office, the Postmaster-General has written the council as follows:—“I have to inform you that so little of the land would be left after making portion available for street widening that my department would not be justified in taking action as proposed. Apart from this, my department has sufficient land already for its purpose. In the circumstances, I regret that I am unable to accede to the request of your council.”
When the letter was brought before the council at its last meeting, it was decided that no further action be taken beyond sending a copy of the letter to the Whangarei Chamber of Commerce.
