City’s non-toxic Effort – Farm Bill Changed to Protect Cities

Under Mayor Pro Tem Christina Shea’s leadership, the City Council’s Organic Pesticide Use policy has now been successful for more than two years, setting a national standard. The City Council has opposed Congress’s Farm Bill section 9101 that would likely have pre-empted cities’ abilities to adopt their own pesticide regulations. In December 2018, under pressure from cities such as Irvine, that section was removed to protect local rights to control pesticide use. Efforts to get to this point are reflected in the links, below.
