The City of Chelsea has created the Sustainability Advisory Commission as a means to better encourage a green-conscious community. The committee’s aims are rooted in finding additional ways to utilize alternative energy, increase the use of environmentally friendly construction materials and methods, improve and expand designated wildlife areas, improvement in recycling methods and waste management, and how to better utilize potable, storm, and wastewater sources, among others. The committee is also examining how to improve and encourage sustainable and environmentally conscious transportation, such as how to increase pedestrian and bicycle mobility.
