Stop the deer cull in Ogden Dunes until the DNR hearing to evaluate the validity of the permit. Review the laws in Indiana so that residents are given a voice in the legal process for DNR permits.
Why is this important?
The town of Ogden Dunes is conducting a deer cull against the wishes of the vast majority of residents. They have also short-circuited the legal process by implementing the cull prior to the DNR hearing to evaluate the validity of the permit. Residents feel that the town's actions breach our democratic rights. In addition, the laws in Indiana are written to support the hunting industry rather than the people.
