(a) The entire area embraced within the City is hereby designated as a bird sanctuary.
(b) No person shall trap, hunt, shoot, or attempt to shoot or molest in any manner, any bird or wild fowl, or rob bird nests or wild fowl nests.

If as a result of such meeting no satisfactory alternative is found to abate such a nuisance, then such birds may be destroyed in such numbers and in such a manner as is deemed advisable by the County Board of Health under the supervision of the Chief of Police.
