RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE RELEASE OF SPECIFICALLY SELECTED
INSECTS TO HELP BIOLOGICALLY CONTROL THE PURPLE LOOSESTRIFE
DENSITY IN LAKE LANSING NORTH PARK
RESOLUTION #97-124
WHEREAS, controlling the spread of purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) is crucial to
protecting vital fish, wildlife and native habitat in Lake Lansing North Park; and
WHEREAS, purple loosestrife can easily spread if left uncontrolled with the resulting damage to
wetlands diminishing their value not only as wildlife habitat, but also by creating adverse
economic impact; and
WHEREAS, biological control of the purple loosestrife plant is accomplished through the release
of specifically selected leaf eating beetles, which also diminishes the possible negative impact on
desirable foliage in the area.
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Ingham County Board of Commissioners hereby
approve the release of the species of leaf eating beetles, as determined by the Ingham County
Environmental Commission, in conjunction with the Michigan State University Department of
Entomology.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the project should be monitored to assess the impact on the
density reduction of the purple loosestrife plant in Lake Lansing North Park.
