§ 12-161.01. Declarations of Findings and Policy.  


Latest version.
  • It is hereby declared that the County Council of Prince George's County, Maryland, has found that the use of pesticides in the County to control common pests of lawns, golf courses, recreation areas, and similar areas is widespread. The County Council is further concerned that health problems may exist for certain individuals sensitive to pesticides and may arise in other individuals who may inadvertently come into contact with a treated area. The Council further finds and declares that requiring public notice before and after pesticide application is necessary to protect and promote the public health, safety, and general welfare.
