I got the following from the NRA which says they did add subdivisions to the list of no discharge sites. I thought they "did the right thing" and stopped adding places?
I thought they dropped that part. Guess I was mistaken; I was having trouble hearing all that was being said.

I know they did make some improvements before voting, one of which resulted in the "lawful defense of property and persons" wording.

The provision for HOAs to petition the BoS to be added to the list of places where discharge of firearms is prohibited was retained (some newneighborhoods were added).

There was some discussion about repealing the ordinance altogether, but on advice of the County Attorney, since such a motion would require additional public notice and comment period,it waspostponed for future consideration.
