Sustainability

Welcome

Welcome to the City of Middleton sustainability website. The goal of the city’s sustainability initiatives is to “meet community needs and aspirations and best optimize the unique nature of the community without compromising the well-being of future generations.”

The Middleton Sustainability Committee meets once a month (typically on the third Monday of each month at 6:30 pm) and is charged with making policy recommendations to the Middleton Common Council pertaining to environmental sustainability. The committee also offers sustainability education through Green Thursdays seminars and community events, such as the Clean & Green Middleton recycling event. Please feel free to peruse the links on this page and don’t hesitate to contact me with questions or comments.
