Waterfowl Hunting Ordinance Review (informational report only); (706) Police Sergeant Steve Blanc explained the informational staff report and pointed out the areas where hunting is not allowed and the various areas where it is not allowed. He stated that due to many hunters' uncertainty regarding jurisdiction issues, the recommendation is that signs should be posted for clarification. Various queestions by Council Members evolved including whether the ordinance prohibits hunting within 500 yards, if State or Federal law allows more restrictive law, and if duck hunters agree that current law is comparable to other cities. Public Comment. Terry Anderlini spoke of the issue having to do with noise. As President of the HOA in the past, he has received many calls about the gunshot noise. He requested Council not allow hunting in Redwood City. Ralph Nobles agreed with Mr. Anderlini's concerns. Hunting not allowed on Federal property and there is no prohibition on hunting in water. Consider increasing the limit, and close the gap in the middle of Corkscrew Slough. Peter Brandon conveyed his experience in viewing hunters in the island area. Collin Mick stated his experience and asked that recreational users be considered. Council consensus was that timeliness of report back is important to come prior to the next hunting season. C.
