Pesticide Ban

Bridgewater Town Council is being asked to ban the use of lawn pesticides and go with an all green lawn care policy. In a letter to Council, Kathi Petersen says putting such a policy in place would be great long-lasting gift for the area. Councillor David Mitchell who supports a ban, says 117 other Canadian Municipalities have such a ban in place so Council wouldn’t be breaking new ground. There was also a suggestion to ban the sale of lawn care pesticides, but Mitchell says that’s not his major concern. According to polls conducted by Corporate Research, 70% of Nova Scotians support a pesticide ban.
