Board votes to remove erroneous County Code section on firearms in right‑of‑way
Summary
After review, the Board approved a resolution removing County Code Section 58‑52 (Use of Firearms in a Right‑of‑Way), saying the language had been inserted in error following a previously rejected 1988 ordinance.
Supervisor T. Wayne Hoover told the Board that County Code Section 58‑52, which governs use of firearms in a right‑of‑way, appears to have been inserted into the County Code in error after the Board rejected a proposed ordinance on Oct. 10, 1988. The Board reviewed a prepared resolution to remove the section.
Supervisor Robert Zava moved to approve the resolution removing Section 58‑52; Supervisor Edward Pennington seconded the motion, and the Board voted unanimously to remove the code section. Administrator Tracy M. Gee said she would contact the Department of Game and Inland Fisheries to notify local game wardens of the Board’s action.
The Board’s action was to remove an existing code section from the local ordinances; the meeting record indicates the change corrects an erroneous insertion rather than enacting a new restriction.
