where any local authority or any district desires to construct
a bridge, or to establish a ferry or ford, in any position that
may be of general or public utility, it shall be lawful for
any considerable portion of the inhabitants of an adjacent
borough or county, or any inhabitants of an adjacent district
where it is, in the opinion of such local authority, reasonable
that they should bear a portion of the cost of such
bridge, ferry, or ford, the provisions of the said section shall
be applicable:

And whereas the Rangitikei County Council has given
notice that they are desirous of constructing a bridge
over the Manawatu River on the Potaka Road, in the position
shown on the bridge mentioned in the Schedule hereto, and
that it is their opinion that a considerable portion of
the inhabitants of an adjacent district will benefit by
the construction of the said bridge and that they should bear a

that it is their opinion that the work should be
undertaken in conformity with the provisions of the said Act,
and that the expense thereof be borne by the Council of the

Now, therefore, I, William Lee, Baron Plunket, the
Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance
and in exercise of the powers vested in me by the said Act,
and in the other powers and authorities enabling me in that
behalf, do hereby authorize the Council of the
Rangitikei County to undertake the work and do hereby
declare that the cost thereof, less such contribution as may
be made by the Government (if any), shall be borne by the
said Council and the Council of the Town of Feilding
respectively, and do hereby declare the proportions of
such cost which are to be borne by each respectively, to be
as follows: that is to say, the Rangitikei County Council
to bear two-thirds of such cost and the Council of the
Town of Feilding to bear one-third of such cost: Provided
that the total amount to be borne by the Town of Feilding
shall not exceed the sum of five hundred pounds: Provided also,
that the contribution to be paid by the Town of Feilding
shall be paid in such manner and at such times as may be
agreed upon by the two Councils, or, failing agreement, as
