ALACHUA COUNTY, FL - Alachua County Manager Randall H. Reid, Chair of the International City/County Management Association Sustainability Advisory Committee, the County has set up a Sustainability website. 

On this site citizens will find resources to programs dedicated to, or having an important role in promoting sustainability within Alachua County. Citizens are encouraged to read Alachua County's "Declaration for a Resource-Efficient and Resilient Community" statement. (click here) It represents a summation message of sustainability that is being shared and discussed at an international level based on this community's collective work.

"Counties must take a leadership role in advancing sustainability," Reid said, "This website represents one more tool to help educate and engage citizens."

To peruse the site click on the following link:
