Poll: Should we encourage freedom camping as a means to boost Auckland tourism?

Liu Chen Reporter from Eastern Courier

Reserves and public car parks around Auckland will likely be opened up to freedom campers as Auckland Council moves to meet its responsibilities under the 2011 Freedom Camping Act by creating freedom camping zones on council-owned land across the super-city.

Legacy bylaws, restricting freedom camping, are up for review. And, while new bylaws are being drafted, more sites will open up for freedom campers. What do you think? Vote below and let us know your thoughts in the comments.
