I fly drones in a Tokoroa park - am I in trouble?

The South Waikato District Council has told the media that there is no rule preventing us from flying our drones in the small New Zealand town of Tokoroa -- so I thought I would put that to the test and headed down to the park with a couple of quadcopters -- then the police turned up.
Fortunately, the cops just gave us a big thumbs-up so all was good.
Regular viewers of this channel will know that I've been battling the local council for a very long time to allow the people of the town to fly their drones and toys in the parks. Those who watched my last VLog will have seen the councilors of our town council in action. Yet today, this was published in the local newspaper:
_"Fabrie said "Children can fly drones in Tokoroa and they were "continually baffled" by Simpson's insistence that council has a rule that says they can't."_
So I figured that these people would not tell bold-faced lies to the media and headed down to the park for a fly!
Here's the full story:
I guess that if the council prosecute me then the whole district will see how they have been lied to by way of the article (above). If they don't prosecute me then I guess the parks are now available to our residents and their children. Either way it's a win-win for everyone!
