[Adopted as Sec. 29.23 of the former Municipal Codebook]
No person or persons shall engage, within the City of Reedsburg,
the artificial feeding of any large, nondomestic, wildlife including,
but not limited to, members of the deer family, wild turkeys, pheasants,
wolf, coyote or bear. "Artificial feeding" is defined as the placement
of shelled corn and/or other types of grain, salt or minerals on the
ground or in feeders, troughs or other types of structures or receptacles
for the purpose of promoting the feeding of such large wildlife animals.
This prohibition shall not apply to the feeding of songbirds, squirrels
and other small, nondomestic wildlife.
Any person violating this article, upon conviction, shall forfeit
not less than $25 nor more than $150, together with costs for the
first offence. For each subsequent offense, however, the owner will
be assessed the amount of the previous fine plus an additional $25;
the maximum fine being $500, together with the cost of prosecution.
If the violation continues, each day's violation shall begin a separate
violation.
