Environmental Sustainability Plan 2012

What is the Decatur Environmental Sustainability Plan?

The Decatur City Commission adopted the Environmental Sustainability Plan in 2012. The plan is a direct response to a charge from the people of the City of Decatur from the 2010 Strategic Plan (Task 12A). Decatur residents submitted hundreds of ideas of how Decatur can become even more environmentally responsible, and specifically tasked the government with creating a citywide plan to address these issues.

This plan was created as a joint effort between City of Decatur staff and the Decatur Environmental Sustainability Board (ESB), with significant input from residents and members of the community over the course of a year.
