We want to provide ordsprog

We want to provide a forum for people working within city and county governments to see what's new in the sustainable movement, and give them tools to achieve their goals of building sustainable projects in their own communities. We'll also have case studies and dialogue sessions where private developers can talk to local government officials about their concerns.
