WHEREAS by section one hundred and eighteen of “The Public Works Act, 1905” (hereinafter termed “the said Act”), it is, inter alia, enacted that in any case where the local authority of any district desires to construct a bridge in any position that will, in its opinion, be of advantage and benefit to the whole or any considerable portion of the inhabitants of an adjacent district, as well as to the inhabitants of its own district, and where it is, in the opinion of such local authority, reasonable that the local authority of such adjacent district should contribute to the cost of constructing or establishing the said bridge and approaches, the provisions of the said section mentioned shall have effect:

And whereas the Kiwitea County Council has taken steps required by the said section, and has made application to the Governor to authorise the construction of the bridge and approaches mentioned in the Schedule hereto (hereinafter referred to as “the said bridge”), and to apportion the cost of constructing the said bridge between the said Council and the Pohangina County Council, and no objection has been made by the Pohangina County Council to such application:

And whereas the Governor is of opinion that such work should be done, and it is expedient to make provision under the said Act for the purposes and in the manner hereinafter set forth:

Now, therefore, I, William Lee, Baron Plunket, the Governor of the Colony of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the power and authority vested in me by the said Act, do hereby authorise the Kiwitea County Council to construct the said bridge; and I do declare that the cost of constructing the said bridge, less such amount by way of contribution as may be provided by the Government, shall be borne by the Council of the County of Kiwitea and by the Council of the County of Pohangina in equal proportions.

And I do hereby also further direct that any contribution hereby required to be made as aforesaid by the Pohangina County Council shall be paid from time to time respectively in the proportion hereinbefore prescribed out of the funds of the said local authority, within a period of thirty days after demand in writing made by or on behalf of the Kiwitea County Council, and all such payments shall be paid from time to time to the Clerk of the said County Council for and on behalf of such County Council.
