It's time to give the toilet and facilities building in Montgomery square a bit of a spruce up, so that it better meets the needs of the Nelson community and visitors to our region.

This is in a high-profile location, especially on Saturday mornings when the Nelson Market is in full swing.

This project has received funding of $150,000 from the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment’s tourism infrastructure fund (with Council funding the other $150,000).
