Green Expo

The environment has always been important to the residents and leaders of Huntington Beach. But recent environmental events, like water and power shortages in Southern California, have made it clear that we need to do more now to protect our local and global environment and restore our resources for future members of our community. That is why I am making the initiation of "Green Programs" a priority for the City of Huntington Beach.The Tree City USA program is sponsored by the Arbor Day Foundation in cooperation with the National Association of State Foresters and the USDA Forest Service. Huntington Beach has met the four standards to become a Tree City USA community. Tree City USA communities must have a tree board or department, a tree-care ordinance, a comprehensive community forestry program, and an Arbor Day observance and proclamation.Huntington Beach – Huntington Beach and Fountain Valley are collaborating to pave “green roads” that are good for the environment, more durable, and save the cities money.   With help from a Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) grant, Garfield Avenue repairs will use a pavement that contains ground waste tires laid over recycled pavement.
