COUNTIES CONFERENCE.
, [per press association]
Wellington This Day.
The Counties Conference spent a considerable time considering part 25 of tho Bill giving County Councils tributary powers for dealing with roads, their construction and maintenonce, outside the Public Works Act. Several clauses which were considered too stringent were struck out. The chief question was how town districts and rural districts would be respectively affected by certain clauses referring to the cutting up of land into allotments and roading it.
Section 200, providing that in certain cases Government may declare a road in a Borough to be a County road, was struck our. The Conference was unanimous on this point.
Tho Conference also resolved to strike out 220, making ' ounty Councillors liable to penalties for laying out roads less than the legal width.
