INTRODUCTION
Welcome to the City of Stonnington’s annual Sustainability Snapshot 2015/16 The City of Stonnington is committed to a healthy and sustainable City, with enhanced natural and urban environments that are enjoyed and protected. Council’s Sustainable Environment Strategy 2013-2017 is developed within the framework of the Council Plan 2013-2017 , providing a strategic approach to addressing the key environmental factors impacting the City. The Sustainability Snapshot is Council’s primary means of reporting on its progress towards the seven environmental priority areas identified in Council’s Sustainable Environment Strategy 2013–17 :
Reporting on each area includes information on: goals and objectives for improvement, key achievements over the previous 12 months, and our focus for the next 12 months. The Executive Summary introduces our key achievements. More information is outlined in the body of the Snapshot. Council has made significant progress during 2015/16 in improving our own organisational sustainability as well as our community education and engagement activities. We’re looking forward to another busy year in 2016/17 as we develop a new Sustainable Environment Strategy and continue to seek opportunities to create a cleaner, safer and better environment for future generations.
