Draft Pesticide Use Bylaw

/in , , /by

At the October 21 Regular Meeting of Council, a draft Pesticide Use bylaw was presented along with a staff report explaining how such a bylaw could be implemented within the City and what exemptions exist for uses which are either Federally or Provincially regulated.

Council determined that the draft bylaw should be posted and public feedback solicited.

The draft bylaw (BylawXXXX-PesticideUseControlBylaw-Draftv1) is available for download and review.  The Staff Report and bylaw are also posted with the October 21 Meeting Agenda (Agenda Item – Pesticide Use Bylaw).

[Update] At the November 4, 2024, meeting, Council determined that further discussion on the proposed bylaw would be deferred until the January 13 Committee of the Whole meeting to allow time for further public feedback to be received.

Comments on the bylaw or report may be forwarded to Council by emailing the City at info@grandforks.ca
