TOWN-PLANNING APPEAL
Judge Upholds Conviction
An appeal by Samuel lan Cardwell against a conviction under the Town and Country Planning Act was dismissed by Mr Justice Macarthur in a reserved decision in the Supreme Court yesterday. “The evidence was ample, in my opinion,” said his Honour, "to show that the use to which the appellant was putting his land at the date of the notice given by the Christchurch City Council detracted seriously from the amenities of the neighbourhood, which is a residential area. "The collection of motor-
vehicles and equipment upon his property was unsightly to an extreme degree.” Mr C. B. Atkinson appeared for Cardwell at the hearing on September 13. and Mr A. Hearn for the Christchurch City Council.
