PUBLIC HEARINGS/ORDINANCES/RESOLUTIONS

Public Hearing: Monday, May 17, 2010, Town Hall, 104 East Locust Street, 7:30 P.M. – Mosquito Control

Mayor DeVaney opened the public hearing at 7:32 p.m.

Comments ranged from opposing the use of Malathion™ for mosquito control, to advocating aerial spraying to minimize West Nile virus concerns. An EPA report was presented stating that “Malathion can be used for public health mosquito control programs without posing unreasonable risks to the general population when applied according to the label.” Other suggestions included wearing insect repellant, using fans, wearing protective clothing, eliminating any standing water that might be a potential breeding ground for mosquitoes, and educating the public about mosquito control. A request was made for spraying earlier in the season rather than waiting until the end of July or first part of August. Many commented that the mosquito infestation in past years made outdoor activities during the summer most uncomfortable. Public comment was strongly weighted in favor of both larvacide, and the use of aerial spraying, if necessary.

Mayor DeVaney closed the public hearing at 7:59 p.m.

  • Councilmember Koenig moved to continue the use of larvacide by the Town, and to spray for mosquitoes if necessary. Snyder seconded.

Approved by majority vote, with Bareither and Olin voting against.

  • Olin moved to waive water overage charges to the account of Dee Sayan in the amount of $176.13, with a second from Koenig. Unanimous vote.
