Subd. 1. Prohibition. No person shall feed or allow the feeding of any deer within any area of the city. For the purpose of this section, “feeding” shall mean provision of one-half cubic foot or more of grain, fruit, vegetables, nuts, hay or other edible material, either on the ground or at a height of less than five feet above the ground, in a manner that attracts deer on a regular basis. Living food sources, such as fruit trees and other vegetation, shall not be considered as deer feeding.
Subd. 2. Exceptions. This prohibition shall not apply to veterinarians, park maintenance staff or county, state, or federal game officials who in the court of their duties have deer in their custody or under their management.
