Cross bow hunting is now permitted during the Urban Deer Hunt per Section 10-171 of the Municipal Code and falls under the same rules and regulations as bow and arrow hunting.

The list of UDH Tracts will be posted on this web page as they become approved. If a phone number or email address is not provided for the property owner, this indicates that the owner has chosen not to accept public inquiries.
