<br />RELATED CITY POLICIES <br /> <br />Resolution No. 4618 (February 2000) outlined a definition and statement of intent regarding <br /> <br />the application of sustainability principles to the City of Eugene, and affirmed the <br />commitment of City elected officials and staff to uphold these principles. <br /> <br />Resolution Nos. 4884 and 4887 (summer 2006) established a sustainable buildings policy for <br /> <br />City-owned and -occupied buildings. <br /> <br />Resolution No. 4893 (November 2006) committed the City to sustainable practices and to <br /> <br />businesses that produce sustainable products and services. <br /> <br />Ordinance No. 20379 (February 2007) created the Sustainability Commission. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />TRIPLE BOTTOM LINE IMPACTS <br />Work plan focus areas include the Transportation System Plan/Pedestrian/Bicycle Master Plan, <br />regional planning, sustainable business practices, carbon fee and the triple bottom line <br />framework.
