The Janesville City Council voted to postpone a first reading on a proposed ordinance to allow the bow hunting of deer at Rotary Gardens at a Monday night meeting.
City Council Member Douglas Marklein says more information is needed before going forward and that the community needs to be more informed and after hearing from people, they’re not pleased with the decision.
Council member Michael Jackson said he wanted the Rotary Gardens to come back with some alternatives to bow hunting, and that he thinks there were other ways to deter the deer.
The first reading was postponed indefinitely after a unanimous vote.
