WHEREAS by an Ordinance passed by the Superintendent and Provincial Council of the Province of Otago, intituled the β€œRoads Ordinance Amendment Ordinance, 1862,” it is among other things enacted in the 12th section thereof, that for the purposes of the said Ordinance the said Province, except as is therein excepted, may, from time to time, be divided into districts; and until otherwise provided pursuant to the provisions of the said Ordinance, there shall be twenty-five districts, which shall be named and bounded as described in the Schedule to the said Ordinance annexed; and it is also in the said 12th section provided that it shall be lawful for the Superintendent, with the advice and consent of the General Road Board, from time to time to alter, vary, diminish, or enlarge the boundaries of any or all of such districts, and to increase the number of districts, by forming and naming new districts, or by dividing any district into two or more districts.

And whereas in the said Schedule the Saddle Hill Road District therein named is described as comprising all that area bounded on the north by East Taieri District; on the east by Kaikorai and Green Island Districts; on the south by the Ocean and the Otakia Creek; and on the west by Block II, Otakia District.
