  • Deer Discussion Attachment 1 to City Council Staff Report
    DEER - ATTACHMENT 1 DEER DISCUSSION ATTACHMENT 1 TO CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT STAFF REPORT AND MEMO FROM DEER COMMITTEE NOVEMBER 2009 REPORTS BELVEDERE CITY COUNCIL NOVEMBER 9, 2009 To: Mayor and City Council From: Felicia N. Wheaton, Associate Planner Subject: Findings and recommendations of Deer Committee Recommended Motion/Item Description Review and discuss the findings of the Deer Committee and provide staff with direction with respect to the specific recommendations of the Committee. Background Black-tailed deer are a common sight in Belvedere, particularly on the Island. The deer feed on a variety of plants, traverse well-worn paths, and bed in pockets of dense vegetation. The total number of deer on the Island is unknown, although there is quantity enough to cause aggravation among many of our residents. The City received enough communications expressing concern about the deer to warrant the formation of a citizen committee to research the issues and investigate potential solutions. The Deer Committee held seven public meetings from February to September of 2009. A community-wide questionnaire was conducted to gauge local concern about the issue. The questionnaire had an impressive 50 percent response rate. The majority of respondents resided on the Island and wished for more effort toward deer population control. Concerns ranged from yard damage to fear of personal injury. A summary of the questionnaire results is included in the City of Belvedere Deer Study (Attachment 3). Findings Representatives from the State Department of Fish and Game (DFG) advised the Deer Committee that the deer were a State resource that could not be proactively addressed without the advice and consent of DFG.
