During the Fall of 2010, the City of Clearwater embarked upon a challenging community project, titled Clearwater Greenprint that explored ways we can all be involved in creating a sustainable community. The one and a half-year project culminated in a plan that includes 44 strategies to improve the city’s sustainability in eight focus areas. One specific area (of the eight) focuses upon Green Energy and Buildings. As such, City leaders applauded the initial concept of constructing a local compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling station to fuel city and private vehicles.

Ultimately, Clearwater’s Greenprint vision encompasses looking for sensible options to advance energy and sustainability, while saving money.
