City Hunting Area Map
I am recommending the city council approve amendments to "Hunting Area Map"
indicating areas of the city where the use of firearms and/or bows is allowed.
Information:
By ordinance, the City maintains a map indicating areas were the use of weapons is
prohibited or allowed. The map is commonly referred to as the "Hunting Area Map".
The map roughly outlines areas allowing the use of both firearms and bows, while
other areas are restricted to bow use only. I am recommending the following
amendments/updates to the map.
1. Eliminate an area allowing bow use at the northeast corner of MN Highways 5
and 41 due to the Pulte neighborhood development. A section of the eliminated
area includes the property of Susan McAltister, 2930 W. 78th Street. I have
spoken with Ms. McAIlister and explained the need to now designate the area as
a prohibited area for weapons.
.
2. Eliminate an area at the southwest corner of MN Hwy. 101 .and Co. Hwy 14
(Pioneer Trail), former Halla Nursery property, due to neighborhood development.
.
A bow area inaccurately located on the map along Lake Drive West has now
been accurately located on the proposed map at the northwest corner of Co. Hwy
17 (Powers Blvd) and Lake Drive West.
