Greensboro City Council Update: Tomorrow's meeting

The agenda for Tuesday's City Council meeting is out and Cool Cities is on it!

Again, we need you to call or e-mail City Council members before the meeting AND to show up at the meeting!

The U.S. Mayors Climate Agreement is listed toward the end of the agenda as a Business Item, so we will again be speaking during the Speakers from the Floor segment of the City Council meeting.

Over 60 of you came out in support of Greensboro becoming a Cool City; we need you again!

During the Speakers from the Floor period, we will all be asked to stand in support of having our Mayor and City Council sign onto the U.S Mayors Climate Protection Agreement in order to protect the environment, conserve energy, and save tax dollars. This will take place between 5:30-6:30, so please plan to be there for that hour. The Agreement will get a vote during the Business Items part of the Agenda, which happens later that evening. If you are unable to stay for the vote, we will send an update to let you know the outcome.

The City Council meeting begins at 5:30 in the Council chambers at the Melvin Municipal Office Building, 300 West Washington Street. Free parking is available in the Greene Street parking deck across from the Melvin Municipal Building. Please bring friends and neighbors who also care about the issues. Our elected officials need to know that their votes matter to us.
