TENNIS COURTS ON SCHOOL GROUNDS
QUESTION OF RATES (By Telegraph—Press Association) AUCKLAND, This Day. The solicitor to the Auckland Education Board to-day advised it that the sites of tennis courts in school grounds, which had recently been assessed for rates by the City Council, are not rateable. He said he thought a local authority could not assess the lands, even if it were possible to assess the tennis clubs as occupiers. Should a Magistrate sitting as a judge of the Assessment Court decide it was his function merely to determine the rateable value, the Hoard might have to take other proceedings in the Supreme Court.
