Our environmental group called Environmental Concerns
Coalition, an ad hoc group out of the Mayor James Richetelli’s office passed a Resolution by the Board of Alderman for advising citizens not to use chemical fertilizers or pesticides in 2002. We have been having a Freedom Lawn Contest since 1996, that is lawns and yards free of chemical fertilizers and pesticides. If you go into our website you will see pictures of gardens and yards that are organic.
