Enoggera, Brisbane water supply No 369, c1894. STATE FOREST AT ENOGGERA 97867365?searchTerm=enoggera water supply&searchLimits= ) No Pollution Of Water Supply The City Council proposes to agree to the request of the Queensland Forest Service to gazette the Enoggera water reserve as a State forest. Departmental officers have advised the Lord Mayor (Alderman Jones) that no disabilities would result from the proposal, as, whatever forestry operations were carried out, steps would be taken to ensure that there would be no pollution of the water supply. The council will retain its rights over the reserve. The Forest Service has now notified the council that it is proposed to gazette the area shortly as a State forest, with the exception of the lake and a fringe of country two chains wide surrounding it, which will be retained as a water reserve. The water and sewerage committee decided on Saturday to recommend that the area round the water reserve should be increased from two to 10 chains, as it might be advisable at some future date to construct another reservoir at Enoggera, the council intends to reserve the right to resume absolute control over any portion of the area that might be required for water supply purposes. The Forest Service will be notified accordingly. From the Sunday Mail, Sunday 27 February 1938.
