29 <br /> I also understand that this a knee jerk reaction to a problem with a particular land owner in <br /> Orange County. If that's the case there has to be some other way to deal with someone using <br /> private land as a commercial firing range without infringing on the rights of EVERYONE. I <br /> surely hope you will take this response into consideration. Thank you, Mike Hogan <br /> Mike Hogan <br /> I oppose the ordinance as it now stands. Please table this until more conversation with the <br /> public (again) can be entertained. <br /> Rachel Phelps Hawkins <br /> Landowner in Orange County <br /> This is my personal opinion — not indicative of any email reference address or my employer. <br /> To: Orange County Commissioners, <br /> My name is Michael Miles.
