H.R. No. 2924
R E S O L U T I O N
WHEREAS, The Mosquito Control Division of Harris County
Public Health and Environmental Services is marking its 50th
anniversary in 2015; and
WHEREAS, This critical unit was established in 1965 in
response to an outbreak of St. Louis encephalitis in the Harris
County area the previous year; originally organized as a county
department, Mosquito Control became a division of Harris County
Public Health and Environmental Services in 1995; and
WHEREAS, Nationally recognized for its efforts, Mosquito
Control was the first group to document the existence of the Asian
tiger mosquito in the continental United States, a discovery it
made in 1985; the division employs sophisticated research methods
and technologies to prevent and control a wide array of ailments
spread by mosquitos, such as West Nile virus, St. Louis
encephalitis, dengue fever, and chikungunya; moreover, the unit has
partnered with a number of entities, including universities, the
Houston Museum of Natural Science, and the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention, to find effective ways to deal with
mosquito-borne diseases and the risks they pose to public health;
and
WHEREAS, Since its inception, the Mosquito Control Division
has contributed significantly to protecting the health and
well-being of Harris County residents, and it is indeed fitting
that the division's staff be commended on their outstanding work;
now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the House of Representatives of the 84th Texas
Legislature hereby commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Mosquito
Control Division of Harris County Public Health and Environmental
Services and extend to its staff sincere best wishes for continued
success; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
prepared for the Mosquito Control Division as an expression of high
regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
