WHEREAS the Ohura County Council lately took steps to raise a loan of £2,300, for the purpose of metalling portions of the Waikaka and Rimu Roads:
And whereas a loan of £2,165 was raised in respect of the above purpose, as it was found that the special rate struck did not provide sufficient security for the full amount of the loan:
And whereas the said loan of £2,165 has been entirely and exclusively expended on the said work, and has been found insufficient to complete the same:
And whereas it is found necessary to raise a supplementary loan under section 18 of the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913, in order to complete the said work:
Now, therefore, the Ohura County Council, in pursuance and exercise of the powers vested in it in that behalf by the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913, hereby resolves as follows:—
That, for the purpose of providing the instalments in respect of principal and interest and also the other charges on a loan of £215, authorized to be raised by the Ohura County Council, under the Local Bodies’ Loans Act, 1913, for the purpose of completing the work of metalling portions of the Waikaka and Rimu Roads, the said Ohura County Council hereby makes and levies a special rate of one-farthing in the pound upon the rateable value of all rateable property of the Waikaka-Rimu Special-rating Area, comprising all the properties situated within the following boundaries,—
Starting from the most northerly part of Section 13, Block 15, Aria Survey District; then in a south-westerly direction passing the southern boundary of Section 27, Block 15, Aria Survey District; continuing to pass along the northern boundary of Section 2, Block 15, Aria Survey District, and south by the western boundary of Section 24, Block 14, Aria Survey District; passing Section 20, Block 14, Aria, bearing to the south and east past Section 20, Block 2, Ohura; still following the southern boundary of Section 20; then in a south-westerly direction along the eastern boundary of Section 19, Block 2, Ohura Survey District, till it strikes the Prentice Road; then along the Prentice Road to its junction with the Ryan Road; thence in a straight line to the Ohura River, continuing along the bank of the Ohura River in a northerly direction to its junction with the Waikaka Stream; then easterly along the southern boundary of Section 14, Block 15, Aria, following the eastern boundary of Section 14 in a northerly direction along the eastern boundary of Section 8, Block 15, Aria, to the Whenuakura Road; thence easterly along the Whenuakura Road till the eastern boundary of Section 13, Block 15, Aria, is met; then northerly continuing around the boundary of Section 13, Block 15, Aria, till the starting-point is reached.
Comprising the following sections: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 14, 20, Block 15, Aria; Sections 20, 24, Block 15, Aria; Sections 2, 37, 4, Lot 15, 4, 5, 4, Block 3, Ohura Survey District; Section 3, 20, Block 2, Ohura Survey District.
And that such special rate shall be an annual-recurring rate during the currency of such loan, and be payable half-yearly on the first day of April and the first day of October in each and every year during the currency of such loan, being a period of 36½ years, or until the loan is fully paid off.
I hereby certify that the above is a true copy of and extracts from the minutes of the proceedings of the Ohura County Council as passed at a meeting of the said Council on the 29th day of September, 1917.
