Consider Adopting an Ordinance Adding 503.10, Use of Bow and Arrow, to Roseville City Code Captain Mathwig, at the request of Mayor Klausing, provided a brief summary of the proposed ordinance, and previous discussions of the City Council, noting that general shooting of a bow and arrow in the City had not previously been ad- dressed by ordinance. Captain Mathwig advised that some concern had been raised with Roseville being an urban suburb, and the possibility of an errant ar- row, creating safety issues and prompting the proposed ordinance. Mayor Klausing advised that he had worked with Police Chief Carol Sletner, her staff and the City Attorney, to offer language as defined in the second paragraph of Section 503.10: Use of Bow and Arrow;" defining unlawful uses, with only lawful uses, specifically reviewed and authorized by the Chief of Police allowed. Mayor Klausing noted that this also addressed Councilmember Kough's concerns raised at an earlier meeting related to qualifying for national Senior Olympics, and other competitive events, as long as they were approved by the Chief of Po- lice. Councilmember Ihlan opined that this proposed ordinance did not address original safety concerns of parents; and spoke in support of prohibiting any bow and arrow use in residential backyards; and questioned the validity of the Police Chief as the authority, and whether this would create enforcement difficulties, or any potential risk for the City. Mayor Klausing opined that it was his intent to be as unrestrictive as deemed pru- dent; noting that there were unique land uses in Roseville that may be suitable for bow and arrow target practice, while still ensuring that the City was meeting safety concerns.
