At least they are seeking ways to get permission from land owners and more hunters. So it seems, think I will inquire.
The 150 foot rule would help. Access is usually an issue, if the town goes knocking on doors and explains the situation it could help with approval and access if done properly.
Estimated cost with sniper and post program 255,000$ - 265,000$ a year.
Some good bow hunters could keep the population at recommended levels at a much better cost with better results. This area is less than 3 square miles.
