Spring will be upon us soon and so will the need to address grounds maintenance. There has been ongoing debate among members regarding the use of pesticides and herbicides on the grounds of Colonial Square.

The spraying of pesticides and herbicides is harmful to humans, pets and the environment and lawsuits have been won by people adversely affected by the use of these products.

We respectfully request the Board of Directors to look forward, rather than return to the use of pesticides or herbicides. We believe that organic treatments are healthier for community members, pets, pollinators and the environment on which we all depend.
