EKETAHUNA COUNTY COUNCIL.

RESOLUTION STRIKING A SPECIAL RATE IN RESPECT OF A LOAN OF £140 (BEING PORTIONS OF A TEN-PER-CENT. LOAN ON £1,445) FOR ALFREDTON-WEBER ROAD.

IN pursuance and exercise of the powers vested in it in that behalf by the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913, the EketaHuna County Council hereby resolves as follows:—

Whereas a loan of £1,600 was duly authorized for the purpose of extending the metalling of Alfredton-Weber Road, but, as the special rate struck was not sufficient for the full amount of the loan, a sum of £1,445 only was raised:

And whereas the amount so raised has been found insufficient for such purpose of providing the instalments in respect of principal and interest and also the other charges on a supplementary loan of one hundred and forty pounds, authorized to be raised by the EketaHuna County Council, under the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913, and more particularly by section 18 thereof, for completing the metalling of Alfredton-Weber Road:

The said EketaHuna County Council hereby makes and levies a special rate of one twenty-fourth of one penny in the pound (1/24th in £1) upon the unimproved rateable value of all rateable property of the Alfredton-Weber Road Special-rating Area, more particularly set out and described on page 4253, N.Z. Gazette, 1914, in connection with the levying of the special rate on the original loan of £1,600. And that such special rate shall be an annual-recurring rate during the currency of such loan, and be payable half-yearly on the 1st day of February and the 1st day of August in each and every year during the currency of such loan, being a period of thirty-six and a half years (36½), or until the loan is fully paid off.

J. B. CARRUTHERS,
Chairman.

And that the common seal of the Chairman, Councillors, and Inhabitants of the County of EketaHuna be affixed hereto.

We hereby certify that the foregoing is a correct copy of the resolution passed Saturday, the eighth day of April, 1916, and appearing in the minute-book of the Council.
