DISCUSSION
Environmental Excellence Awards are given by the City of Chanhassen to
recognize environmental improvements and encourage environmental stewardship
throughout the community. These awards are designed not only to recognize
achievement, but also to communicate new ideas and help educate the members
of the Chanhassen community. This year marks the first year that award winners
were identified and selected by the Environmental Commission instead of
soliciting applications for the award.
The award presentation is scheduled for the December 13 City Council meeting.
The Environmental Excellence A ward winners should be approved by the City
Council prior to the award presentation at that meeting. Marcus Zbinden, Chair
of the Environmental Commission, along with members of the Commission will
attend the December 13 City Council meeting in order to join the Council at the
front of the Council Chambers for the presentation. Each award recipient will
receive $50 Chan Bucks or a plaque.
