RE:          Pesticide free park report

On May 10 the Park and Recreation Advisory Board voted to support the Parks and Recreation Department’s response to the request by the City Commission to implement a plan to be more pesticide free in our parks.

The Advisory Board recognizes there are high costs in implementing this multi-year plan and would support its implementation as funding may be approved.

We ask that this item, with the attachments, be placed on the May 17^th City Commission agenda for continued discussion.
