The City of Hopewell recognizes that it has a
responsibility to enhance and preserve the James and
Appomattox Rivers, the Chesapeake Bay, and the
environment as a whole now and for future
generations. That, combined with the increasing need
for sustainability in government, because of the
continued rise of energy and other operating costs; led
City Council to pass a “green” resolution in August of
2008.
This resolution authorizes participation in VML’s
(Virginia Municipal League) Go Green campaign, and
empowers City employees to use whatever means
available to promote environmental and fiscal
stewardship and leadership through energy
management, resource conservation, and community
awareness ion the City.
