| CLEAN ENVIRONMENT
Montgomery County has been a leading county in America for setting “green” building standards and promoting low-impact development practices. As your Councilwoman, I will continue expanding our legacy in promoting sustainable communities. I will fight for:
- Green Buildings: Providing additional incentives for green building standards through the Montgomery County “Green Building” program
- Energy Efficiency: Convert every traffic signal to LED by promoting the principles of the “Cool Counties” initiative
- Clean Fleet: Expand the conversion of county vehicles to low-emissions vehicles
- Green Incentives: Continue to promote clean energy rewards and renewable energy in Montgomery County
- Open Space: Increase tree plantings and buffer areas, purchase open spaces, and encourage low-impact development practices that control and absorb run off
- Cooperation: Forge relationships with federal and state officials to promote sustainable communities and eliminate pollution
