A QUERY.
(To the Editor of the Patea Mail.) Sm, —Can it bo because Mr Winchcomb, the valuer for the Waverley Town- Board, is a member of the Patea County Council, that no objections have been raised by the Council to the valuation list for that district ? I see in your report of the proceedings of the Council, at their meeting on slh instant, that the committee appointed to inspect the valuation lists recommend, “ that the rate roll ” (which I presume means valuation list, the committee have not been very precise in their terms) “ of the liawera (24th) Road District be objected to on the grounds that the said roll is not in the form specified in the second schedule of ‘ The Rating Act, 1877,’ &c," and that the Council adopted their report. It seems very strange that they should not have noticed (hat the valuation list for the Waverley Town District was also not upon the form specified in the said schedule, and also that the valuer had failed to sign the valuation list. Whence this thusness.—l am, &c., WAVERLEY. Feb. 10, 1879.
