            </p>
            <p style="font-family: Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-size: 12px;"><strong>Policy will reduce chemical applications and promote alternatives</strong><br />
            <br />
            On April 26th, the Evanston City Council passed the state's first municipal resolution creating a sustainable pest control and pesticide reduction policy. The policy requires city agencies and contractors to use sustainable pest control practices - both indoors and outdoors - and bans the most potentially hazardous pesticides from use on city property.
