2017 Integrated Pest Management Plan Update

On November 7, 2017, the City Council approved a significant policy and procedures update for the City's Integrated Pest Management Program. The plan was developed with the guidance of public input, through community workshops and meetings with the Natural Resource Commission Hazardous Materials Subcommittee, as well as the Open Space and Habitat Commission, the Tree Commission and the Recreation and Parks Commission.  As of July 2024, the Natural Resource Commission was restructured and established as the Climate and Environmental Commission.
