LIVERMORE FALLS ADVERTISER • August 24, 2023
In July, Farmington Selectman Dennis O’Neil presented a petition asking that an ordinance against in-town deer feeding be adopted. Officials with the Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife attended a Select Board meeting in August to share information and made suggestions about reducing the deer population. It is illegal to feed deer from June 1 to Dec. 15, game wardens can talk to individuals and if it continues, can give citations. If Farmington was to pass one on deer feeding, the warden service doesn’t enforce, that would be the responsibility of local police.
