Sustainability Brand LogoThe Sustainability Office works to provide core services for residents and businesses. Our services aim to improve the livability of neighborhoods and homes, create vibrant economies, and improve environmental health. This is an aspirational vision for the city and it will take many partners working together to accomplish it. 

The Sustainability Office strives to:

  • Build a system of intentional support for residents, businesses and the environment that mitigates risks and proactively seeks out ways to ensure the community not only endures, but thrives.
  • Foster equitable opportunities that help residents feel at home and connected in their community and empowered to live their best lives.
  • Help the City responsibly manage all of the resources entrusted to our care to meet the needs of today without sacrificing the ability to meet the needs of the future.
