Town's Journey
Town of Halton Hills Town Hall
The final chapter of the Green Plan was intentionally titled: "The Ending Marks The Beginning". This title denotes the fact that
although the six month mandate of the Mayor's Green Plan Task Force has now been completed, the true work on moving Halton Hills
forward towards sustainability has just begun.
That is, Council approval of the Green Plan is just the first step on a journey towards sustainability. The metaphor of a journey towards sustainability implies that the road towards environmental leadership and sustainability has no real end. Instead, it is a continuous effort. The Green Plan also alludes to the need to consider sustainability strategies and actions that will ensure that sustainability is incorporated into the Town's everyday decision making process.
