It is necessary to have the engineering services for the repair of South Canterbury Road due to the fact that the previous engineering design was for a concrete street and cannot be used in the current plans. There is also a demand an the engineering services in the city, so we should amend the contract with R. E. Warner to include South Canterbury.
