GreenLane’s Roundtable with the City of Eugene

Posted in

Ethan Nelson from the City of EugeneEvery two weeks, members have the opportunity to meet at our networking lunch.  The past year, we’ve been working to shape these meetings as not only a time and place for members to get to know each other and share resources and ideas, but also to bring valuable educational opportunities and information.  In September, we accomplished this with joining with the City of Eugene.

Eugene Mayor Kitty Piercy greeted members at the lunch, and spoke about the city’s focus on sustainability.  GreenLane members then broke up into four groups and met with representatives of Eugene’s Sustainability Initiatives.  Each group focused on a particular topic. 

Ethan Nelson focused on green building, and outlining the city’s new Green Building Incentive Program for commercial and residential properties. 

Education Committee

The focus of the education committee has been how GreenLane can best fulfill the educational needs of our community. We’ve educated our members through networking meetings, attending various events, providing opportunities for major organizations such as the City of Eugene, the University of Oregon, the Springfield Chamber, to meet with GreenLane members and to focus community-wide alignment of goals as well as reaching out to identify what the members of GreenLane want in our community.
