FALCONER – Residents in Falconer concerned with a higher-than-normal mosquito population will want to attend a community forum Tuesday night at Fenner Elementary School.
Local residents Glenda and Keith Nelson have distributed flyers throughout the village, inviting residents to attend a forum that will focus on the mosquito issue and develop a communitywide action plan to help find a solution
Mosquito borne diseases include West Nile Virus and Eastern Equine Encephalitis. While both have not yet been detected this year in Chautauqua County, public health officials have released warnings and are trying to help increase awareness about staying protected from mosquito bites.
Several local officials will attend the meeting, including Falconer Mayor Dave Krieg, the village board and County Executive Vince Horrigan.
Tonight’s meeting will be held at 7 p.m. at Fenner Elementary School on East Main Street and is open to the public.
Keith and Glenda Nelson says
Just wanted to say thank you to Jason Sample for attending our meeting last night, August 5th!! We will continue to work with Village and County officials to identify possible solutions to the large mosquito infestation in Falconer. We encourage our Falconer neighbors to attend the upcoming Village of Falconer Board meeting on Monday, August 11th at 7pm at the Community Building.
Let’s continue to Fight the Bite!!!!
