Green Plan Philadelphia

GreenPlan Philadelphia is an exciting planning project that has resulted in a long-term, sustainable roadmap for using, acquiring, developing, funding, and managing open space in our City's neighborhoods.

Key components of GreenPlan Philadelphia include:

  • Identifying the benefits that a greener city would provide to the environment, the economy, and quality of life.  
  • Presenting an inventory of the City's current natural resources
  • Proposing specific goals for a more sustainable city and identifying the agencies that will champion their implementation
  • Suggesting funding strategies for the plan's implementation
  • Offering evaluation tools to measure the success of the plan

GreenPlanPhiladelphia is tentatively scheduled for release by the end of Summer 2009.
