Mr. Frank Imo and Mrs. Eva Imo, 5828 Catamuet Court appeared as proponents. Mr. Imo stated that he has been doing Pizza his whole life and about three years ago he started doing barbecue because he had a building that he owned with an empty space and he thought he would put a barbecue place in. He said he decided he would do another one and he thinks this is the area and the place to go. He found the property and purchased two properties. He just bought the property where the sno-cone stand was, so he now owns 110 and 126 Old Meramec Station Road. He said they plan to build an awesome building. They plan to sell beer and wine and will be closing at 9 pm. Alderman Hamill stated that the Planning and Zoning Commission approved this request unanimously.

BILL AMENDING THE DEER CONTROL POLICY Alderman Toben introduced Bill # 18-2347, entitled: “AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE ARTICLE V OF CHAPTER 205 OF THE MUNICIPAL CODE RELATING TO THE CITY’S DEER CONTROL POLICY AND HUNTING REGULATIONS” by title only. Alderman Nolte said he thinks this does a good job and looks like a lot of positive changes in hoping to manage the deer population in Manchester, but the only problem he has is the $1 million insurance to hunt in Manchester. He said he believes it is way too high. He said it use to be $2 million and since has been lowered to $1 million. He recommended reducing it to $300,000. He said most homeowners policies have liability insurance for personal liability have $300,000, so it would not require people to go out and buy a separate policy to hunt deer in Manchester. Alderman Baumann stated Alderman Nolte is on to something, but that they need to consider that if someone hits a deer with a bow and arrow, and the deer doesn’t die right away, it is likely the deer will run onto someone else’s property, and possibly run into someone’s house. Alderman Nolte made the comment that a deer can run into someone’s house before it is hit by a bow. He said with a deer as far as hunting goes, there are very few injuries even with firearms. He said there are also very few injuries with bow hunting. Alderman Huether asked what the financial burden is to carry $1 million insurance. Alderman Nolte stated he suspects it would be about $400 to get a specialized policy for a piece of land in a municipal area for $1 million. Alderman Huether asked if this kind of situation would fall under general liability. Alderman Nolte responded that it would fall under general liability insurance. Alderman Huether asked if the City would be looking to verify the individuals do, in fact, have insurance. Alderman Nolte answered there is nothing that requires proof currently. He said most are going to have homeowners generally but there is no requirement to provide proof. Alderman Huether stated if someone asked her to hunt on her property she wondered how she would know if they have insurance. Alderman Nolte answered that the property owner would ask for proof in order to be on your property. He said he is not stating it shouldn’t be a requirement, but he believes they should lower the amount required. Regular Board of Aldermen meeting 08/20/2018 Page 7  Alderman Baumann said he agrees with Alderman Huether that there should be a requirement to provide insurance before someone hunts in Manchester. Alderman Toben said that in his opinion, he does believe $1 million is high, but they had discussed $1 million with both the hunter and the property owner collectively. He said he just renewed his liability on his homeowner’s policy for $1 million, and the cost was $250. He discussed the hunter’s permission form that they sign as the hunter and the homeowner that states they have complied with all regulations that were set by the Manchester Ordinance and they do hold liability insurance. There is not a proof process, but at any time, the Police Department has that information on file if they get stopped. Alderman Baumann stated that in the City of Ballwin, they have to check in the Police Department prior. Alderman Toben stated Manchester will be the same way. He also asked if the City will be giving a permit and wondered if Manchester should be charging a nominal fee for the permit. Mayor Clement answered that the City will not be charging a fee, because it will be a standard form. He stated the plan is that police clerks would handle the paperwork. He isn’t sure this would be adding a considerable burden. He said they have spoken a lot. and from his point of view, as they begin a program like this, there will be a quite a few families that are going to be concerned, especially those with children. He said they have checked, and most cities are at $1 million for insurance, and it just gives the assurance to those that are going to be fearful that there is going to be a hunter and it could be that hunter could be fairly close. It is a security blanket to know that the hunter has insurance. Alderman Nolte stated that Wildwood has a lower number and Wildwood allows firearms. Alderman Baumann commented that Wildwood has a lot more property between houses. Alderman Hamill asked if there is a reason why the City would not require a certificate of insurance. Alderman Toben answered that from the discussions that they have had, they are trying to look at ease of access to the municipality as far as hunting. The way it stands right now, there are many loop holes that they have to jump through. This is a way where Manchester can connect the hunter as well as the property owner together, if they come to those terms and they have the correct amount of insurance, which they should at that time. Really, his opinion is if it is the City business to regulate that; the City will ask that they have it. Alderman Baumann stated he is for thinning the herd; however Manchester is a community not the wildlife. His beliefs are Manchester needs to safeguard the residents, where the City needs to see the insurance ahead of them hunting. Alderman Toben stated he understands Alderman Baumann’s feelings but he is also concerned with children driving down the road and swerving and hurting themselves or someone else to miss a deer. He also said that Manchester’s connection at Missouri Conservation Department has said no other county besides St. Louis County in all of the United States has a liability policy requirement. Regular Board of Aldermen meeting 08/20/2018 Page 8  Director of Public Works Bob Ruck explained that he heard the word “Permitting”. The City is not actually issuing a permit. It is a permission slip between the homeowner and the hunter and when that is completed they submit it to the Police Department, and if everything is right, then the Police Department just records it and holds it for verification if someone should call in and say there is someone hunting on the property. Alderman Hamill stated this seems to be more of a notification process which takes place between the hunter and the homeowner. Director Ruck stated it is giving the City a record of knowing who is out there so we can get the deer reports coming if someone does get a deer and reports it. This is a way of tracking it for the Conservation Department. Alderman Nolte stated that this is also subject to Missouri State Laws and the Missouri Department of Conservation laws. There is only deer hunting during certain times of year. The City would not allow deer hunting all year around in Manchester; everything is still subject to State Law. Alderman Ottenad stated she would be more comfortable with requiring the insurance and providing it. Alderman Toben stated the hypothetical possibilities of an actual accident happening is relativity low, where as in your vehicle there is a high probability of that happening. Mayor Clement stated this was designed to make it easier for the hunter. Alderman Nolte said that if the amount would be a reasonable amount, most people are going to have it by default. He said he would not be against having the homeowner prove they have the insurance. Alderman Ottenad asked about approval from trustees. Alderman Nolte asked which trustee would have the ability to approve. Mayor Clement stated he doesn’t think Manchester can impose that on the trustees. Chief of Police Timothy Walsh stated that the State has complete control over the permitting process. He said that the Police Department has authority to enforce hunting regulations. Alderman Huether asked, based on the experience of other municipalities who are doing this, about how many hunters might hunt in Manchester. Mayor Clement stated from what we know from other communities who do the same, it will require some promoting and pushing this out into the community. He said some communities do not have a lot of luck if you leave it to luck. So not only do we need to make it easier but we have to make it known to the trustees, hunters and residents. It will require some luck. Alderman Toben stated other municipalities around us are cutting their regulations to a significant degree. Manchester will still be considered more stringent than Chesterfield, for instance. Regular Board of Aldermen meeting 08/20/2018 Page 9  Director Ruck stated Chesterfield recently went to a half acre. Alderman Toben stated as he sits on the Board, and for people who are not hunters, there is still a pretty significant amount of hoops to jump through, and he doesn’t see a big flock of hunters that are going to say they want to hunt because some of the regulations have been cut in half. Alderman Heuther stated that it sounds like the number of hunters anticipated will be small, so it doesn’t feel like an undue burden on the City to insure the guidelines are being followed. If we are getting notice that there are three hunters in the weekend during hunting season, it seems like we would have the capacity to go by and see if they are following the regulations. Alderman Toben stated that, as a hunter himself, most hunters are very ethical people and they do follow the guidelines; they do follow the rules. He said if they are going to take police officers’ time to enforce regulations on hunters, he can guarantee there will not be one hunter who will show up; this is the idea of having a police escort. Alderman Heuther stated she is not talking about a police escort, but she thinks there will be concerns with people hunting in our neighborhoods. She said she needs to be educated on this. Mayor Clement stated that this is private property, not public property. He is not sure that asking the Police Department to make a drive through of the City is as effective as we might think it could be. This is a relationship between the hunter and the property owner and there needs to be dialog between them. No further action at this time. 11. MISCELLANEOUS a. Comments from the Public Mr. Lou Salamone, 319 Quinnmoor Drive, stated that he is the owner of Suburban Bowhunters and has been doing this for 17 years in St. Louis County. Clarkson Valley in 2004, Chesterfield 2005, Creve Coeur, Ellisville, Sunset Hills and Wildwood, they hunt everywhere. He turns in his insurance certificates to a lot of these cities, but not Wildwood or the unincorporated areas. He said it was mentioned about the $300,000 homeowner’s liability. He said individuals can get an umbrella and he knows people who do this just for the hunting season. He said an umbrella is normally about $300 a year for a homeowner. He said his is $300 a year, or $80 for four months. He said that he would suggest hunters do that for safety. Mr. Salamone stated Creve Coeur is trying to get rid of the insurance requirement, which he is not suggesting, because they are trying to get more people interested. He likes the removal of bow hunter education, because that alone will get more bow hunters to come. He said he likes the one acre requirement and notifying the neighbor. Alderman Baumann asked about proof of insurance. Mr. Salamone stated he turns in the notification. He turns in the hunter information and the property where he is hunting. He said it is not the easiest thing in the world, but they do it. Regular Board of Aldermen meeting 08/20/2018 Page 10  Mayor Clement asked who turns in the insurance information. Mr. Salamone said he does that himself for all the hunters. He said some cities require identification, but he believes that it is senseless. The police know from the license plate or driver’s license, so they know who is hunting and who should be there. Mr. Chris Winters, 510 Cardinal Lane, said he assumes the hunter needs to have the State permit also. Alderman Nolte said the hunter is not allowed to retrieve a deer from another person’s land without permission. Mayor Clement stated if a deer was to die on someone’s property, other than where the hunt was being allowed, then the hunter contacts the Police Department and notifies them. 12.
