Notice of Intention to Stop Road

Paradise Bay, Pelorus Sound

In exercise of the power contained in Section 342(1)(a) of the Local Government Act 1974, and in accordance with the Tenth Schedule of that Act, public notice is hereby given that the Marlborough District Council proposes to stop legal road containing (1) 0.1347 ha shown as Section 1 SO plan 451032; (2) 2.0073 ha shown as Section 2 SO plan 451032; (3) 0.0470 ha shown as Section 3 SO plan 451032, Marlborough District.

Explanation
