RODNEY COUNTY COUNCIL.

RESOLUTION MAKING SPECIAL RATE.

WHEREAS the Rodney County Council, with the
approval of the ratepayers of the Wellsford-Whangaripo Special-rating District, lately raised a loan of £1,275 for
forming and metalling of the Wellsford–Whangaripo Road :
And whereas this amount has proved insufficient to complete
the work for which it was raised : And whereas it is provided
under section 18 of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913, that
in the event of the original loan proving insufficient the local
authorities may borrow a further sum not exceeding one-tenth
of the amount originally authorized by the ratepayers, without
obtaining any further approval :
Now, therefore, in pursuance and exercise of the powers
vested in it by the Counties Act, 1908, and the amendments
thereof, the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913, and any other
Act enabling it in that behalf, the Rodney County Council
hereby resolves as follows :—

“That, for the purpose of providing the interest and other
charges on an additional loan of £125 (being portion of 10 per
cent. loan on £1,275) for completing the construction of the
Wellsford–Whangaripo Road, the said County Council hereby
makes and levies a special rate of one thirty-sixth of a penny
in the pound upon the capital value of all the rateable property in the Wellsford-Whangaripo Special-loan District, being
all that area comprised within the boundaries set out in the
Schedule hereto ; and that such rate shall be an annually
recurring rate during the currency of such a loan, and be
payable yearly upon the last Friday in January in each and
every year during the currency of such a loan, being a period
of 36½ years, or until the loan is fully paid off.”
