An Act to constitute the Te Matai Road Water-race District.

Preamble.

WHEREAS the area of land described in the Schedule hereto lies partly within the County of Tauranga and partly within the County of Rotorua: And whereas it is desirable that the said area be declared a water-race district, but there is no provision in the Water-supply Act, 1908, for the declaration of an area of land not lying wholly within one county to be a water-race district:

Be it therefore enacted by the General Assembly of New Zealand in Parliament assembled, and by the authority of the same, as follows:—

1 Short Title.

This Act may be cited as the Te Matai Road Water-race District Act, 1927.

2 Interpretation.

In this Act, if not inconsistent with the context,—

“The general Act” means the Water-supply Act, 1908:

“The said district” means the Te Matai Road Water-race District constituted under this Act.

For all the purposes of and incidental to the general Act and this Act the Tauranga County Council may make and levy rates over all or any of the rateable lands within the said district, and may collect and recover the same in all respects as if the whole of the said district were within the County of Tauranga and were a part of that county.

5 Powers and duties conferred or imposed upon the Tauranga County Council.

For all the purposes of and incidental to the general Act and this Act the whole of the said district shall be deemed to be a part of the County of Tauranga; and the Tauranga County Council shall accordingly, in and in respect of the said district, have and may exercise all the rights, powers, and privileges, and shall be subject to the duties and liabilities, vested in or conferred or imposed upon County Councils by the general Act or this Act, anything in the general Act or any other Act to the contrary notwithstanding.
