NOTICE is hereby given that the undermentioned sections
will be offered for sale at the Conference Hall, Dominion Farmers’ Buildings, Wellington, at 7.30 o’clock p.m.,
on Tuesday, the 15th May, 1928.

SCHEDULE.

WELLINGTON LAND DISTRICT.—LOWER HUTT BOROUGH.
Belmont Survey District.—Hutt Valley Settlement.

These sections are situated in the block to the eastern side of the new railway-line, and are midway between Woburn and Waterloo Railway-stations. They front Cambridge Terrace, Trafalgar Street, and Guthrie Avenue, the formation of which streets is now practically completed. The soil is of a rich alluvial nature, and the sections are flat and generally well above the street level, thus providing good drainage. Storm water and sewer drainage, high-pressure water-supply, gas and electric lighting, are being provided, so that purchasers can proceed with building operations immediately.

SHOPPING SITES.

These sites are the first to be offered in the Hutt Valley Settlement for shopping purposes, and comprise part of the area defined by the local authority under the powers conferred by the Town Planning Act, that shall be used for the erection of shops. The streets have all been laid out to the full width of 66 ft., and will provide for 10 ft. footpaths fronting the shops. The area has been subdivided into sections with a minimum frontage of 20 ft., and practically all will be provided with separate entrances from the 16 ft. access-ways. The locality is immediately adjacent to the Woburn Railway-station, and is the centre of what will ultimately be a large residential area.

NOTE.—The attention of intending purchasers is drawn to easements for public purposes as shown on the plan. Intending purchasers are also advised that a building-line restriction will operate in case of sections fronting streets of a less width than sixty-six feet.
