I HEREBY give notice of the result of the poll taken on the 17th day of March, 1899, on the proposal to raise a loan of £1,200 for defraying the cost of constructing kerbing and side-channelling of concrete on certain roads and streets, and portions of roads and streets, in the Papanui Ward of the Avon Road District, the security for the said loan being an annually recurring rate of one shilling in the pound sterling on the annual rateable value of all properties fronting on the sections of each street or road, or part of each street or road, proposed to be channelled and kerbed, as defined in the notice published in the Lyttelton Times of the 24th February, 1899.

The whole number of the ratepayers on the special roll is 59, entitled to exercise 71 votes.

Number of ratepayers who voted in favour of the proposal .. 41.
