In part two, a prime block of land has been left vacant. It's right across the road from a popular beach in Nelson and now will become ... a car wash. Some locals are worried that such pieces of prime land can be used in such a "low value" way. Then, those big carrots and L&P bottles look great and are fun, but need money. Riverton/Aparima in Southland has been protected by a giant 4 metre tall Paua shell for years and the local community board has been hit by an unexpected and unbudgeted for repair bill.
