Warrant Article #37 Guidelines for a Sustainable Concord

Contact Info
Description
Over the past couple of months we have met with all the Town committees and dept heads to introduce the Article and ask them what work they feel they are already doing that could be considered sustainable so we can include reference to it in our presentation at Town Meeting. This has helped get buy in from them. We have asked the Town Manager and Board of Selectmen for their support and just last week they voted to support the Article.
The Article was written so that the Town can design their own guidelines. ConcordCAN is holding monthly Coffees (3rd Tuesday, 7:30-9AM) where we ask members of the community working on sustainability to speak. We are also asking outside experts like SustainableJersey, EcoMunicipalities and Bedford (NY) 2020 to come speak about their work. These Coffees are intended to introduce the Town to the options currently being implemented. They agree that being sustainable is important (a no brainer as many have said) but don't know how to go about it system-wide.
