An Act relative to reducing the use of toxic pesticides in the town of Eastham

This bill (HD 5355) allows the town of Eastham to create its own local rules restricting the use of toxic pesticides within its boundaries, overriding conflicting state laws like Chapter 132B. It directly affects Eastham residents, property owners, and businesses that use pesticides in the town. The key provision is granting Eastham the authority to adopt by-laws regulating pesticide use, without needing state approval. The law takes effect immediately upon passage.
