A series of forums for local government officials and community members like you and me will start Sept 28 at the Commerce Bank Education Center, MO Botanical Garden.

Key Take-aways from each session:

  • Economic and quality-of-life benefits
  • Best practices
  • Funding opportunities"

There are 6 forums and the series goes from Sept 28 through April 19. I hear the Sept 28 Kick Off will have Catherine Werner, St. Louis City sustainability Director and Ann Klein, St. Louis Co. Sustainability Director plus another speaker.

Topics for October 19 will be Sustainable Stormwater Practices and for November 30 will be Sustainable Transportation and Land use.

Each session is $10 or $50 for the whole series. An organization can sign up for $50 and send different people to different sessions!

Coffee and bagels are promised if you arrive a little early–by 7:30 am:)
