1
Within one month from the date of the first publication of a notice under section 205(5)(a) above, an owner of premises shown in a provisional apportionment of expenses as liable to be charged with any part of the expenses of executing street works with respect to a private street or a part of a private street may, by notice to the street work authority, object to their proposals on any of the following grounds:—
a
that the alleged private street is not a private street or, as the case may be, that the alleged part of a private street is not a part of a private street;
b
that there has been some material informality, defect or error in, or in respect of, the resolution, notice, plans, sections or estimate;
c
that the proposed works are insufficient or unreasonable;
d
that the estimated expenses of the proposed works are excessive;
e
that any premises ought to be excluded from or inserted in the provisional apportionment;
f
that the provisional apportionment is incorrect in respect of some matter of fact to be specified in the objection or, where the provisional apportionment is made with regard to other considerations than frontage, in respect of the degree of benefit to be derived by any premises, or of the amount or value of any work already done by the owner or occupier of premises.
2
Where premises are owned jointly by 2 or more persons, a notice under subsection (1) above may be given on behalf of those persons by one of their number, if he is authorised in writing by a majority of them to do so.
