Sustainability Committee

Purpose

The Sustainability Committee is a working group comprised of members from the Town of Davidson Livability Board and Planning Board. Formed in the fall of 2020, members began meeting in December in order to provide initial direction regarding the town’s sustainability efforts as articulated in the Davidson Comprehensive Plan and the Davidson Board of Commissioners’ Strategic Plan. Specifically, commissioners charged the group with helping to “define the desired outcomes of the town’s sustainability efforts” (Strategic Plan Goal F, Strategy F3).
