Saline Environmental Commission

Saline, A Green City

Saline City Council established becoming a Green City as part of the 2010-2011 goals and objectives.  The city council based this decision on a review of the previous year's activities with an eye toward a successful and financially stable future.  Building and enhancing a green city is an important goal. Energy efficiency and awareness of environmental issues provide for a healthier and more productive city. As community leaders we have a responsibility to make decisions that impact our environment in a sustainable manner, to provide for the needs of future generations. Saline has established the following goals and objectives to be a green city:

• Ensure that Saline is a model for environmental efforts

• Empower the Environmental Commission and encourage citizens to follow a variety of green and conservation initiatives
