Aims to leverage state and federal funding for green infrastructure and energy efficiency.

Grant funding and staff resources continue to support various sustainability initiatives across the city.
Bee City USA Affiliation and Pollinator Protection
Minimal impact, integrated into existing sustainability department operations and volunteer efforts.
water main repair
Unplanned repair costs will come out of the city's utility maintenance budget, though specific figures aren't available yet.
water pollution
Local taxpayers could end up footing the bill for expensive fines and urgent plant upgrades.
