Ferguson Passes Energy Conservation Ordinance

The City of Ferguson recently passed an Energy Conservation Ordinance that will help Ferguson take important steps to become a "green" city. The story featured on KSDK includes two very active participants in the Live Well Ferguson! initiative, Councilman Dwayne James and resident Martin Pion. Live Well Ferguson! is a partnership between Trailnet and the City of Ferguson that seeks to create a model healthy, active, and vibrant community.

The ordinance includes a focus on alternative modes of travel as a key element of reducing Ferguson's environmental impact. Congrats to Ferguson on this important step! We hope other regional municipalities will follow Ferguson's lead.
