Bloomington just won't adopt sustainability

http://www.ci.minneapolis.mn.us/sustainability/GreenPrint07_home.asp

Why can't we get Bloomington to move forward with sustainability? They just want to keep putting up buildings without the road structure to support it. And they seem quite proud of it. Yet after at least 15 years have not even solved the 84th Normandale issue, and in fact worse now but the buildings continue to go up. And not even Green buildings at that.


I asked the City Council at the end of February 2007 to put some sustainabiliyt metrics on the city web site. Simple things like how much elcecticy does the city itself use and how much gasoline. It would be nice to know what we are paying and using as a city. Yet they have to "study" that.

Sad state of affairs.
