Neighbours lodge opposition to seasonal worker complexSCOTT HAMMOND/STUFF Budge St, off State Highway 1 in Blenheim, is the only road access into the entire suburb of Riversdale. Hawke's Bay company Seasonal Labour Accommodation Provider has applied to build 10 residential buildings on a 1.34-hectare section off Budge St, in Riversdale. But residents say the area cannot cope with the extra traffic, with eight submissions made in opposition from Riversdale and Islington residents. RICKY WILSON/STUFF A manager will live in an existing house on Budge St, and the commune will be built on a larger rear section. SUPPLIED The seasonal worker commune will have recreation and social areas.
