TO COUNCILMEN CLIFFORD, FENDLEY & KENT
FROM DICK BOOTS - DIRECTOR OF COMMUNITY FACILITIES
SUBJECT . LAKE CROOK HUNTING
I have received input from the following concerning hunting at Lake Crook:
Archers for Christ, landowners bordering Lake Crook Property, Game Wardens
and the general public. After reviewing all requests and suggestions, I am
making recommendations that I feel will satisfy all interested groups or
individuals. Attached are two maps. One shows the existing hunting districts
and regulations and the second shows the proposed hunting districts and regu-
lations.
District 1 - 526 Acres: Due to the close proximity of landowners to this
area, I recommend District 1 be restricted to archery hunting
only.
District 2 & 3 - 190 Acres: I recommend that Districts 2 & 3 be set aside
for archery hunting only. The private landowners are requesting
no gun hunting in this area. I believe that if hunting in these
two areas is restricted to archery only, the landowners will be
satisfied. I further recommend that Archers for Christ lease a
small section of this area for their archery range and that these
two sections be open to the public for archery hunting only, not
just for their club members.
Districts 4 -5 -6 -7 - 729 Acres: I recommend that Districts 4 -5 -6 -7 be restricted
to hunting with shotguns using shot only. No slugs shall be per-
mitted. I recommend that District 7 which previously was a no
hunting area, be added to the hunting with shotgun and shot only.
District 8 -10 - 300 acres: I recommend that Districts 8 & 10 be restricted to
no hunting areas.
District 9 - 972 acres: I recommend District 9 be restricted to hunting ducks
and geese in accordance with State and Federal Laws.
I believe these recommendations will satisfy the majority of interested indi-
viduals. Please review this information and contact me if you have any comments.
I would like to put this item on the next regularly scheduled City Council Meet-
ing. Realizing how busy each of you are, I went ahead and made these suggestions
in order to save you the time and effort.
Thank you.

Chairman Fendley announced the meeting was called for the purpose of

Dick Boots, Director of Facilities, presented the committee a
memorandum with recommendations concerning hunting at Lake Crook as
follows:
District 1 - 526 acres: Due to the close proximity of landowners to
area, I recommend District 1 be restricted to archery
hunting only.
District 2 & 3 190 Acres: I recommend that District 2 & 3 be set aside
_for archery hunting only. The private landowners are
requesting no gun hunting in this area. I believe that
if hunt in these two areas is restricted to archery
only, the landowners will be satisfied. I further
recommend that Archers for Christ lease a small section
of this area for their archery range and that these two
sections be open to the public for archery hunting only,
not just for their club members.
Districts 4, 5, 6 ,7 - 729 Acres: I recommend that Districts 4, 5, 6,
7 be restricted to hunting with shotguns using shot
only. No slugs shall be permitted. I recommend that
District 7 which previously was a no hunting area, be
added to the hunting with shotgun and shot only.
District 8, & 10 - 300 Acres: I recommend that Districts 8 & 10 be
restricted to no hunting areas.
