Hunting
Hunting requirements include obtaining a State-issued Hunting License from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department for 2009-10 and appropriate stamps, and
a City-issued Permit for a fee. Hunters must sign a liability release and report all harvest information. Purchase of a permit does not guarantee the
harvest of game. Hunting access is allowed only on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays through the hunting season. Permit fee paid by hunter is determined by
hunter residency.
