Public comment record shows majority favor aligning with state rifle statute, per hearing transcript

During the March 19 public hearing, in-person and online comment lists recorded by the clerk show a clear pattern in the transcript: more residents in the posted lists favored aligning county regulation with state statute (rifle) than preserving a county shotgun-zone ordinance. The in-person list includes 23 entries (16 labeled 'Rifle', six labeled 'Shotgun', one unrelated comment about the state flag). The online record contains roughly 16 entries (about 13 favoring rifle, two favoring shotgun, one posing a question about hunting blinds).
