4/3 Agenda Item 12: Integrated Pest Management Policy Updates

Shane Saum

Councilmember
I made some small changes to the IPM Policy to fix spellings and grammar. Also it wasn't clear that the golf course was to be included.

These state law citations clarified that this policy is not merely aspirational in promoting environmentally responsible practices — it also ensures we are in compliance with state and federal laws and guidelines. These updates bring the policy into alignment with the law.

  • Added updated statutory references to the Texas Structural Pest Control Act and the Texas Administrative Code to ensure alignment with current state law.
  • Included citation to the Texas Occupations Code, Chapter 1951, which governs pest control licensing and regulations.
  • Clarified language around compliance with Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) and Structural Pest Control Service (SPCS) requirements.
  • Corrected outdated or imprecise references and cleaned up formatting for clarity and accuracy.

Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions. Happy to walk through the changes with anyone interested.
