land, prepared by A. H. Bridge, Licensed Surveyor, is intended
to be used wholly for residential purposes) that the road shown
therein should be of the width of 66 ft. :

Now, therefore, I, David Henry Guthrie, Minister of Lands,
do hereby, in pursuance of the power vested in me by section 2
of the Land Laws Amendment Act, 1915, and of every other
power me thereunto enabling, authorize the laying-off of such
road of a width of not less than 47 ft. ; providing always
that it shall not be lawful for any person to erect or cause
to be erected any building at a less distance than 33 ft. from
the middle-line of such road.
