[HISTORY: Adopted by the Board of Trustees of the Village of Upper Brookville 4-1-1973 as Art. 16 of the 1973 General Ordinance. Amendments noted where applicable.]
While the value of pesticides in controlling undesirable insects, fungi and rodents has been well established, the widespread and sometimes indiscriminate use of pesticides, especially those pesticides which do not degrade rapidly after use, has resulted in serious problems by disrupting the ecological balance, by causing permanent injury or death to fish and wildlife and by posing potential threats to the health and welfare of the people. It is necessary, therefore, in order to protect the health, safety and welfare of the residents of the village, to find a solution to such problems. It is the purpose of this chapter to control the buildup of pesticide residue in the environment, in fish and wildlife and in man, and to foster and stimulate use of those pesticides that will break down most rapidly in the air, soil and water.
No person, firm or corporation shall:
A. 
Spray, distribute, use or disseminate out of doors within the village any chemicals, the use of which is prohibited by the federal or state government.
B. 
Spray or distribute any chemicals directly or indirectly on the property of another without the permission of such property owner.
