I agree R Jordan! It is only councils responsibility because people like Max, keep demanding it is! Its a bit like those who believe they have a RIGHT to an education (there is no such right - it is a ficticious statement) Tauranga City Council are not EXPERTS in the field of entertainment. They are only interfering because A: They think they are expected to do something B: Tauranga people (like Max) keep saying things like "Whats the council going to do about it." C: Some councillors (AKA busyboddies) think its a good opportunity to make a name for themselves "ie - look how good I am and what I've done for the community" - while using other peoples money. This is a form of GAMBLING by the council. GAMBLING with other peoples money. They don't know what they are doing (they are not professionals in the entertainment arena) but they are HOPING for a good or positive outcome. They are not negligent on purpose, as they have the areas best wishes at heart, but this is just what happens when you are gambling with other peoples money - ALL CARE BUT NO RESPONSIBILITY. I am all for people making money from this sporting event, and I have no problems with feudal corporate overlords making money! - PROVIDING it is done VOLUNTARILLY - ie they provide goods or services, and I purchase them if I want to - as opposed to being FORCED to pay for them whether I like it or not. I have absolutely no problem with the voluntary interaction between ANY two parties (feudal corporate overlords included) so long as I am not FORCED to be part of something I would not chose of my own free will. Its all about minding your own business (whilst allowing others the same courtesy) and learning the TRUE meaning of the word RIGHTS
