Councilmember Mohr stated he had received complaints from several citizens regarding the inconvenience caused by the spraying. She expressed concern regard- ing the cost of unnecessary spraying to the citizens. It was moved by Councilmember Mohr, and seconded by Mayor Mercer, to notify the Madfly Project Committee requesting that Pleasanton not be sprayed with mala- thton more than two life cycles of the madfly because of cost and inconvenience. Councilmembers Kephart,'~utler, and Wood concurred that Madfly Project techni- cians were more knowledgeable than the City Council ot Pleasanton citizens regarding the amount of spraying that should be done, and that this decision should be left to them.
