SUSTAINABILITY ADVISORY BOARD Vision of a Sustainable Lake Oswego A sustainable Lake Oswego is a community that meets the vital human needs of the present without compromising our ability to meet future needs. This requires consideration of both long-term and short-term effects on ecological, economic, and community systems. Operating sustainably means that we are leaving a legacy for the community of Lake Oswego and the planet. A sustainable Lake Oswego is a place recognized nationally as a model of livability—a unified city with a vital downtown, a strong sense of neighborhoods, and a harmonious relationship with the natural environment. The lives of everyone who lives, works, and conducts business in Lake Oswego are enriched by a wide range of choices in transportation, housing, recreation, and culture. Our infrastructure is sound, our finances stable, and our citizens and employees healthy and engaged. SAB Mission & Duties The mission of the Sustainability Advisory Board shall be to promote the sustainability of the community as a whole, considering public and private actors and their effects on ecological, economic, and community systems. The Sustainability Advisory Board shall be guided by the Sustainable City Principles embodied in the City’s 2007 Sustainability Plan. The Sustainability Advisory Board shall: a. Advise and assist the City Council in efforts to make City operations more sustainable. b. Assist in the development of plans and policies to enhance the sustainability of the City as a whole. c. Educate and support other Lake Oswego organizations to become more sustainable. d. Educate and engage the public in efforts to make the community of Lake Oswego, including residents, businesses, and institutions, more sustainable.
