Background

In 2008 Mayor Clarence Sweetland appointed Councillor-at-large Sherry Wilson to be Liaison Councillor for Environmental Strategies. Recognizing the vast amount of information and looking at the numerous projects undertaken by other municipalities, Councillor Wilson determined that it would be productive to form a committee.

To date our committee has started a number of projects such as composting and providing Energy Meters for residents to sign out at town hall so they may determine how much energy they consume in their own home or business.

Our Environmental Strategies Committee has been very busy looking at what we can do to make Riverview a greener community, through promotion, education, and implemention of projects which will benefit us all.
