The problem with asking them to remove the info is that to a certain extent you want this info to reach a wider audience. Although it would be really nice and courteous of them if they'd asked (because I'm sure you'd have said 'yes' anyway) and because they might have had the decency to add in details about 'your' events.

I can't see anywhere that it states it's 'their' info although I have only had a quick look and the lack of replies might be attributable to the email not being checked because they're not up and running properly yet.

Whatever the logic, it's rude of them to not approach this in a professional way. As the web site/forthcoming radio setup isn't very helpful, is this sponsored by the local council or similar? If so it could be worth an email there.

Otherwise I'd be inclined until it's up and functioning with 'real' people and an office, go in and talk to them in person and offer them the information regularly updated with the proviso that you get a 'thanks to' on the page.

Good luck, but try not to get too distressed by it.
