Meadville is a progressive small city. With an eye toward
reducing operating costs and efficiently stewarding public
tax dollars, the City has embarked upon a number of
sustainability initiatives in recent years to minimize its
environmental footprint and enhance the communitys quality
of life. According to the Environmental Protection Agency,
The sustainable community should establish goals and a
vision by developing more efficient and effective ways in
which to live and grow. It also will involve the
participation of the entire community in creating a vision
of the community's future that balances economic,
environmental and social needs. City government has
partnered with local business, academia, citizen volunteers
and many others to advance its sustainable practices
according to the definition of a sustainable community
outlined by the Environmental Protection Agency.
