Durham, CT Roadside Maintenance Task Force 2015
Channel: Tina Hurlbert
Date: 2015-05-12

This summer, a group of concerned citizens came together to request that the Town of Durham Public Works department cease spraying curbside and rights-of-way with herbicides like RoundUp and Vacate.  The Task Force was established to come up with safe, cost-effective recommendations.  Our final presentation to the Board of Selectmen was successful:  on May 11, 2015, they agreed to eliminate all use of RoundUp, Vacate and Glyphosate products from use on town property and rights-of-way.
