It's true that you agreed to a legally binding contract as soon as you drove into the parking lot. Thankfully, New Zealand law protects consumers from the exploitative clauses that corporates love to slip in the fine print.

Under contract law, parking companies can only claim for "the actual and reasonable costs they incurred". Charging $65 for a short overstay in an empty carpark is as far from reasonable as you can get.

I'm listing these on behalf of my son who is a farmer in rural Waiuku.
2 Huntaway puppies, 14 weeks old, been regularly flead & wormed.
1 Male, black & white
1 Female, chocolate brown
Both parents are excellent working dogs. My son told me they could have Kelpie, hence the brown puppy, she's a very lovely and sweet natured dog who would work as hard as her mother and would herself be a wonderful mother.
The male is a very keen and intelligent dog and would make an excellent worker.
Viewing and pick-up in rural Waiuku. Price is per puppy

Why are some of our district councils voting against a draft Regional Speed Management Plan, designed to create safe speed limits on our roads?

The Thames Coromandel District Council has voted not to support the plan which was expected to deliver new speed limits around the Waikato region within the next three years.

Should speed limits be lowered? Do you think district councils are wrongfully prioritising other things over this?
