COUNTY OF TARANAKI.

Resolution levying Special Rate of ½d. in the Pound.

WHEREAS the Taranaki County Council has been authorized by the ratepayers to borrow £1,000 for the purpose of forming and metalling a cross-road from the Carrington to the Frankley Road, and the New Zealand State-guaranteed Advances Board has finally granted the application for such loan at the rate of 3½ per centum per annum: And whereas the New Zealand State-guaranteed Advances Office Superintendent is unable to advance such loan (namely, £1,000) at the said rate of interest, but can advance the same at 4½ per centum per annum:

Now, in pursuance and exercise of the powers vested in it in that behalf by the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1908, and section 4 of the Local Bodies’ Loans Amendment Act, 1910, the Taranaki County Council hereby resolves: That, for the purpose of providing moneys sufficient to cover the increased payments in respect of such loan (namely, £1,000), the said Taranaki County Council hereby makes and levies a special rate of ½d. in the pound (which is in addition to the special rate of ½d. in the pound already levied on this special-rating area, and published in New Zealand Gazette of 11th July, 1912, page 2210) upon the rateable value of all rateable property of the Hurworth Special-rating District, comprising all the lands described in resolution of this Council published in the New Zealand Gazette of 11th July, 1912, page 2210; and that such special rate shall be an annual-recurring rate during the currency of such loan, and be payable yearly on the 1st day of May in each and every year during the currency of such loan, being a period of thirty-six years and a half, or until such loan is fully paid off.

I hereby certify that the foregoing is a true and correct copy of a resolution duly passed at a special meeting of the Taranaki County Council on the 5th day of May, 1913.
