1 févr. 1871 - Highways Boards Empowering Act - passed

Description:

Highway boards built and maintained roads and bridges funded by rates. Section 5 of the
Highways Boards Empowering Act 1871 allowed the boards to rate Māori freehold, and
customary land when leased to Pākehā, but the Rating Act 1876 then exempted all customary
and Māori freehold land from rates. Rating powers over Māori land were
re-introduced in 1882.
