Who are we?

The Saint Andrews Environmental Advisory Committee was formed in December of 2020 as a result of the Saint Andrews Adaptation Plan, A Community Based Climate Adaptation Plan (2019). We meet on a monthly basis to generate recommendations to Council on environmental matters and to support positive environmental management practices and policies. This year, the committee is focusing on:
1. Composting
2. Energy usage & greenhouse gas emissions
3. Green spaces

Mandate

The Environmental Advisory Committee will work to champion local actions to address community environmental concerns and pertinent environmental issues. The Committee will provide a forum for members of the public to express concerns and discuss policies, regulations, and other protocols in relation to environmental sustainability, management, and conversations to contribute to the overall quality of life.
