Sustainable Edgewater Seminar 34: Edgewater’s Sustainability Plan

From Xerxes Steirer:

Dear Friends and Neighbors,

Please mark your calendars for two upcoming Sustainability events in the month of October.

1. Edgewater’s Sustainability Committee recently developed and crafted a Sustainability Plan that was adopted by City Council on September 3rd. The chair of the Sustainability Committee, Lilly Steirer, will be presenting a slideshow of the Plan at our monthly Sustainability Seminar.

Lilly will answer all of your questions about the Committee’s nine month process of gathering information from the community, researching possibilities, and organizing the final Plan. She will explore the potential future of sustainability in Edgewater and what each of us can do to support efforts going forward.
