News from Energy and Environment Committee
The Columbia Daily Tribune has an article up today about the last meeting of the Energy and Environment Committee. The main topic was the determination of the duties of the forthcoming sustainability manager. Sadly, I see no indication that there is any desire to push for the hiring of the position prior to the awarding of funds later this year, despite the allocation of funds for it in the 2009 city budget. As its our mission to advocate for sustainability in Columbia, we can’t emphasize it enough that we ought to have a sustainability professional hired as soon as possible.
