NO SHOOT ZONE HEARING: Thirteen

large and that responsible gun use in the
area should be allowed on private target

much of the irresponsible gun use is done by
people from out of the area who shoot at
abandoned cars and water storage tanks on
land owned by the State and Port Ludlow
Associates. The Board will make their
decision at a future date.
