  • Hi Sheila, not sure what happened to your post but nobody has intentionally deleted anything recently. Where did you post it?

    I agree about posting the pesticide signs, thanks for staying on top of this!

  • I love EBRPD - we are so lucky to have these amazing open spaces in our community.  I posted this information here a few days ago and was deleted - this is a public forum and I am sharing important information with the public so please do not delete my post!  EBRPD uses pesticides that are harmful to our families, pets, wildlife and drinking water.  They should be required to post signs like schools are legally required to do so we KNOW when we are in areas that have been treated.  We have the right to know when we are exposed to potential carcinogens, endocrine disruptors and products that are linked to a growing list of health problems.  Please visit www.pfse.net more information on this important topic or contact info@pfse.net!  

    WALNUT CREEK RESIDENTS:  

    Please sign this petition and join us at the Dec 14th, City of Walnut Creek meeting at 7PM to show support for weaning off pesticides. Let's work together to protect our families, pets, wildlife and our drinking water!
