Winkelhake, Chief of Police BOWS, ARROWS AND CROSS BOWS October 15, 1997 During the Deer Committee discussion the fact that the City Code was silent regarding the use of Bows or Crossbows within the city limits was brought to light. I believe the lack of any type of ordinance with respect to Bows and Crossbows presents a safety concern to the citizens of Iowa City. I believe this concern can be addressed by the addition of a section titled: 8-7-4: BOWS, ARROWS AND CROSSBOWS: Discharge Prohibited: It shall be unlawful for any person to discharge or cause to be discharged any bow or crossbow which propels an arrow or other dangerous missiles, at any time or under any circumstances within the City limits.
