Not using Round up sounds like a wonderful idea, I have seen it contribute to hive collapse in the valley, and don't want that to happen here. Besides, we don't need our children and pets exposed if they play on the grasses. Thanks for listening!

Thank you city council members for doing this. We definitely need less toxic chemicals in our environment.
