Maybe someone to manage a feral coyote shelter would be the answer...

I know a better and cheaper fix

Might not be that far off. As hunters one might argue if indeed there are 30 000 cats out there one might want not to shot coyotes in that area until numbers come down. Bit of nature taking care of itself. If we can't take care of the feral cats let the coyotes do it.
Time in the outdoors is never wasted

Take the warning labels off. Darwin will solve the problem.

i agree. Let the coyotes put a good dent in them for now and control the coyotes later once the cats are pretty mich gone.
Learn all you can about nature. What we don't understand, we fear and what we fear, we destroy.
Teach a young person to hunt and fish, after all, someone taught you.

Has too much time on their hands
What about farmers, do they like cats?

Firearm discharge rules would restrict any activity in or around most towns..

No we don't...I have one out in my barn that is like a ghost. I rarely see it, catch a glimpse of his tail occasionally. The dogs get pretty excited when they see it, so it doesn't venture anywhere near the house. It comes from the idiots place down he road that has, at her own admission, over 40 feral cats on her property that eventually wander away to her neighbours places.
Attracting Coyotes to the area, for free cat dinners, is not a great idea...the consequences to my livestock trumps her desire to have cats.
