l~UQJ.s·l; 19, 1980
I recently received a map i'ror,1 t,he Depart,,1et1t, of Fish and Game
indicating that the ar~a east of Rancho Santa Fe Rv~d, near the inter-
section with La Costa Avenue, is within the city limits of Carlsbad.
Because the land is t1ithin the boundar-✓, even though it is uninhabited,
the ini'ormatio::i included with the r,1ap indicated it would be necessary
to obtain a permit to discharge a firearm in the area. On the Thomas
Brothe1•s map of Carlsbad, the coordinates are 25 D 1.
I talked with Dan Hentschke of the Cit;y At~orney 1 s office and he
confirmed t~e fact that I 1-1ould need a perm: t to discharge a firearm.
The applicable sections or the Code are 8.16.020.
I have received ·1-1ritten pei1r~!.ss5.on from l:,he La Costa Land Co. to
to hunt doves on its land, and would lilce, Lherefore, to petition the
Carisbad City Council for the right Lo shoot doves on any dsy, from
Septernber 3, 1980, te> Septe1aber 30, 1980. On any one of those diays
the 111a:x;imU111 nu.i11ber of shots fired (.from a shotgun) 1-:ould be ten. I!
possible, I would prefer this matter to be seti,led at the council meet-
ing of September 2, 1980, as Llie dove hunting season ends on September 30,
1980.
· Thank you £or your aM;ention to this uatter.
