Sustainability council seeks follow-up feedback on energy conservation grant
Do you have ideas about how the city of Greensboro and residents can best conserve energy? The Community Sustainability Council will hold a follow-up meeting on Oct. 13 to get public input on what projects the city should include in its application for federal energy conservation funds.
Meetings will take place from noon to 1:30 p.m. and 6:30-8 p.m. in the Nussbaum Room of the Central Library, 219 N. Church St. Free parking is available in the Church Street Deck. Contact Sue Schwartz at sue.schwartz@greensboro-nc.gov or 373-2349 for more information.
The City Council-appointed advisory group held initial public meetings in July and has since then been working to narrow a long list of proposals so that it can submit its application for about $2 million in funds by November.
Update: By the way, Brian Higgins, founder of Sustainable Greensboro, has an idea for how to use some of those funds.
Update (noon): Just got a press release from the city that states that it now has until Dec. 3 to turn in its application.
