An Ordinance to empower Owners and occupiers of Land within certain Districts to repair and maintain Highways and Public Works within the same, and to makeand levy rates for defraying the expenses thereof; it was enacted that if the major part of the persons qualified to become Electors (in the manner in the said Ordinance mentioned) within any District, should apply in writing to His Excellency the Governor, distinctly setting forth the boundaries of such District, and requesting that the same might be declared to be a District within the provisions of the said Ordinance, His Excellency might by Proclamation declare the same to be such District, and by such Proclamation should prescribe a period within which all claims to the right of voting at the election of the first and every succeeding Board of Commissioners for such District should be made. And whereas by an Act passed by the Superintendent of the Province of Auckland with the advice and consent of the Provincial Council thereof, intituled “An Act to transfer certain powers and duties from the Governor and Colonial Treasurer of New Zealand to the Superintendent and Provincial Treasurer of the Province of Auckland respectively,” it was enacted that all the acts authorised or required to be performed by, and all the powers given to the said Governor by the said recited Ordinance, should thenceforth cease to be performed by the said Governor, and should and might thereafter be performed and exercised as fully and effectually for all intents and purposes within the Province of Auckland by the Superintendent thereof, as the same could before the passing of the said Act be done and exercised by the said Governor. And whereas the major part of the persons entitled to become electors within the District hereinafter set forth have applied to me in manner in the said Ordinance directed to declare the same to be a District within the provisions of the said Ordinance.

Now, therefore, in pursuance of the said powers and authorities in me vested, I, the said Superintendent, do hereby proclaim and declare that all the lands situated in the Parish of Pakuranga in the County of Eden, and known as lots 3, 7, 18, 26, 27, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 51B, 52, 53, 54, 55, 64, 65, 66, 80, 85, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 102, 103, 104, 109, 110, 111, 112, 116, 119, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 128, 129, 130, 140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 145, 146, 147, 148, 149, 150, 151, 152, 153, 154, 155, 156, 157, 158, 159, 160, 161, 162, and 163; and that all the lands situated in the Parish of Manukau in the same County, and known as lots 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 11, 12, 13, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 27, 27A, 28, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 36, 39, 40, also all portions of lots 9, 10, and 13 lying north of the Great South Road, and the Otara Bridge Reserve; also all roads lying between any of the before mentioned lands, and one half of the Roads (excepting the Great South Road) bounding any of these lands but not lying between them, shall form a District, within the provisions of the said Ordinance.
