Report Ready On Whether To Make Feeding The Deer A Crime

Should Common Council pass a bylaw to make it an offense to feed deer in the city?

City Staff are saying no for a variety of reasons. They claim resources for bylaw enforcement are stretched thin as it is and feeding deer would get a low priority. As well, it's felt most people would likely be unwilling to go through all the legal steps necessary to have a charge laid.

Council is being advised to join the effort which is going on in the K-V where the problem is considered worse.
