WELLINGTON RESERVES
KENT TERRACE CONTROVERSY. INQUIRY BY A MAGISTRATE. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Wellington, Nov. 10. The question whether the City Council should be permitted to proceed with the proposed work on the Kent Terrace reserve, with the view of providing more space for the traffic needs of the future, which has been the subject of a violent controversy, and the granting of a Supreme Court injunction is, at the instigation of a section of ratepayers, being argued before Mr. Page, S.M., who was appointed by the Government, under the terms of the Land Act, to determine whether a proclamation should be issued, wholly or in part, allowing the council to proceed. Mr. O’Shea appears for the City Council, and Mr, A. L. Hunt for the objectors. The council’s case rests mainly on the grounds that Kent and Cambridge Terrace provide the main route to all the southern suburbs, and that taking a strip of the reserve for widening is essential.
