MANDEVILLE AND RANGIORA RIVER BOARD.

LAND TO BE TAKEN FOR PUBLIC WORK.

NOTICE is hereby given, in accordance with "The Public Works Act, 1894," that it is the intention of the Mandeville and Rangiora River Board to take, under the provisions of the said Act, one acre one rood thirty-eight perches, belonging to one Richard Evans, being part of Rural Section 7407, the said parcel of land proposed to be so taken being bounded on the east by No. 1 Drain from the south-eastern corner to the north-eastern of the said section, thence along the northern boundary a distance of three chains, thence in a straight line to a point fifty links from the south-eastern corner of the said section, thence along the southern boundary to the starting-point; a survey plan of which said land so to be taken is open to inspection by all persons at the office, in High Street, Rangiora, of the Mandeville and Rangiora Road Board during office hours.

The said Board propose to execute thereon the following works—namely, to make a ditch to bank and erect a fence along the western boundary of the land so to be taken; also to clear away as much of the willows and other trees as may be necessary to provide a better channel or outlet for the escape of flood-water from the River Cust.

All persons having any well-grounded objections to the execution of such work or the taking of the said land are required to set forth the same in writing, and to send such writing within forty days from the first publication of this notice to the Mandeville and Rangiora River Board.
ROBERT M. WRIGHT,
Clerk to the Mandeville and Rangiora River Board.
