Although it appears unlikely, the Town and Country Board of Aldermen could vote Monday night to amend the city's newly approved deer management program to include sterilization of deer.

The current plan, approved by the board of aldermen Oct. 10 and set to take effect in December, includes sharpshooting as the only method of deer management.

Alderman Al Gerber, who chairs the city's Conservation Commission, is sponsoring the bill. He is proposing the amendments that include adding sterilization as a method of deer control, along with sharpshooting.

Gerber told Town and Country - Manchester Patch at the Oct. 10 board meeting that he is not optimistic his proposed amendments will be approved Monday night, since he did propose them and they were not approved at that Oct. 10 meeting. 

See agenda and supporting documents above for complete details on the amendments and other agenda items set for Monday's meeting.
