Sustainability Assessment Tool - Southwestern Pennsylvania

December 26, 2008 by Sustainable Pittsburgh

Guidance for Municipal Leaders, Developers and Concerned Citizens

Sustainable Pittsburgh recently launched a Sustainability Assessment Tool with local government officials in mind. Guiding growth and development in your municipality is a big responsibility. Planning for the long term impacts of development is both a challenge and one of the most enduring ways to enhance quality of life in your community. SP’s intent is to provide tools and models to help you usher in development that delivers economic, social and environmental value… simultaneously and long into the future.

Indeed, this defines sustainability. This Sustainability Assessment Tool strives to help you know sustainable attributes when you see them and to evaluate and plan for your community’s sustainable development. We also recommend incorporating requirements for sustainability in your zoning and subdivision/land development ordinances.
