Warrant authorizing the Portobello Road Board to construct a Bridge across Anderson's Bay, near Dunedin, and apportioning the Cost.

LIVERPOOL, Governor.

WHEREAS by section one hundred and nineteen of the Public Works Act, 1908 (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, or to establish a ferry or ford, in any position that will, in its opinion, be of advantage or benefit to the whole of 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, ferry, or ford, the provisions of the said section shall have effect:

And whereas the Portobello Road Board has given notice and taken the steps required by the said Act, and has made application to the Governor to authorize the construction of the bridge mentioned in the Schedule hereto, and hereinafter referred to as “the said work,” and to apportion the cost of constructing and establishing the said work between the said Road Board and other local authorities:

And whereas it is also provided in the said Act that the Governor (with the view of determining whether or not the work should be done, or what proportion, if any, of the cost of the same should be fairly borne by any local authority, or what local authority should do the work) may direct any Magistrate or other person to be a Commissioner to inquire into and report to him on the matter:

And whereas a Commissioner was appointed and an inquiry was duly held, in the manner provided by the said Act, in respect to the said work, and in respect also to the apportionment of the cost of constructing the said work:

And whereas such Commissioner did report to the Governor, after due inquiry, his opinion as to the matters respecting which he was appointed to report:

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

Now, therefore, I, Arthur William de Brito Savile, Earl of Liverpool, the Governor of the Dominion of New Zealand, in pursuance and exercise of the powers vested in me by the said Act, and of all other powers and authorities in anywise enabling me in this behalf, do hereby authorize the Portobello Road Board to execute the said work: And I do hereby declare that the cost thereof, less such contributions as may be made thereto by the Government of New Zealand, if any, shall be borne by the Portobello Road Board, the Dunedin City Council, and the Bay Town Board in the following proportions, viz.: The Portobello Road Board shall bear 50 per cent. of such cost, the Dunedin City Council shall bear 40 per cent. of such cost, and the Bay Town Board shall bear 10 per cent. of such cost: And I do hereby further direct that any contribution hereby required to be made as aforesaid by the Dunedin City Council and the Bay Town Board shall be paid out of the funds of the said Council and Town Board within a period of one month after demand in writing made by or on behalf of the Portobello Road Board; and such payments shall be made to the Clerk of the Portobello Road Board for and on behalf of the said Council and Town Board.
