That the amount applicable for drainage purposes is to be £4,500, and the amount applicable for waterworks is to be £9,500. That the property to be specially appropriated and pledged as a security for such loan and the interest thereon pursuant to the said Act is to be the said drainage-works and waterworks, land, buildings, engines, machinery, and other things (the subject-matter of the loan), and the revenues therefrom, and a special rate of one shilling and sixpence (1s. 6d.) in the pound sterling on the rateable value of all property in the borough. That the whole loan is to be repayable on the 1st day of January, 1925, and is to bear interest at the rate of four pounds ten shillings per centum per annum payable half-yearly. That in connection therewith 140 debentures of £100 each are to be issued, each payable on the said day, with separate coupons attached thereto for each half-year’s interest, and the principal and interest secured by such debentures are to be payable at the National Bank of New Zealand (Limited) at Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Dunedin, or Mosgiel; and that the preliminary expenses incurred in connection with the schemes, the cost of raising the loan, and the interest for the first year, are to be paid out of the said loan.
