Hikurangi Drainage Area.—Notice re Classification of Lands.

WHEREAS in pursuance of the powers conferred on me by section 3 of the Swamp Drainage Amendment Act, 1928, I, Ethelbert Alfred Ransom, Minister of Lands, did appoint Alexander Campbell Sutherland and Frank Elliott to examine and classify lands in the Hikurangi Drainage Area, constituted under the Swamp Drainage Act, 1915 :

And whereas the classification has been made by the said Alexander Campbell Sutherland and Frank Elliott, and the list setting forth such classification has been signed by me :

Now, therefore, pursuant to subsection (3) of the said section 3, I hereby give notice that the said classification list so signed by me will be open for inspection at the Hikurangi Post-office from the 16th day of November, 1933, to the 7th day of December, 1933, both days inclusive.

Any person aggrieved by such classification may appeal against the same on the ground that the land of the appellant or any other land in the drainage area has not been fairly classified in accordance with the benefit received or likely to be received from the construction of the works authorized by the Swamp Drainage Act, 1915, or has not been classified.

Notice of appeal setting out the grounds thereof must be given to the Clerk of the Magistrate’s Court at Whangarei on or before the 14th day of December, 1933, and a copy of such notice of appeal must, on or before the last-mentioned date, be lodged at the Head Office of the Department of Lands and Survey at Wellington.

The appeal will be heard by a Magistrate, at such convenient time and place as he appoints, of which fourteen days’ notice will be given to the appellant.

For the information of owners and occupiers of land in the drainage area, the allocation of the unimproved values, determined under the Valuation of Land Act, 1925, to areas classified as Classes A, B, C, and D has been shown on the classification list. Any inquiry in regard to these values should be made of the Officer in Charge, Valuation Department, Auckland.
