CC Minutes 12-14-09Chanhassen City Council – December 14, 2009
pleasing, improve property values and provide good stewardship so Greg and Colleen,
congratulations and thank you.
Greg Fletcher: Thank you very much.
Mayor Furlong: We have a Certificate of Recognition as well so thank you very much. At this
time I’d like to invite members of the St. Hubert’s Church and School. I think we have one of
the teachers, Layne Bensiek here and some students as well. Project Reduce, Reuse and Recycle
programs in the church and school was the winner of this year’s award. This year St. Hubert’s
Church and School decided to do things a little bit differently. Instead of going with the status
quo they made some environmental changes throughout their building. Some of the changes
were small but some big but they all added up to a significant difference in the church and the
school’s environmental impact. They discontinued using styrofoam cups and now use donated
coffee mugs. In the classrooms paper towels are no longer used but instead rags and natural
cleaners are used instead. In hallways and other rooms there’s a greater quantity of recycling
bins to ensure access for everyone. They switched from, all from lighting to environmentally
friendly products and use only green cleaning solutions in their buildings. With the success and
accomplishments this year the school plans on forming a student green team, which I think we’re
seeing the initial membership right here. Excellent. This year and into next year as well as
looking at other options such as composting organic waste in their cafeteria. So to the St.
Hubert’s Church and School and the green team, thank you and congratulations. Move on now
to the next items on our agenda.
