The Villard Avenue Business Improvement District’s “CLEAN, GREEN, & ME,” Initiative was launched in Spring 2020 and focuses on providing a clean environment for all to live, work, and play. Additionally, we aim to build and maintain green infrastructure and removing brownfield blight. Furthermore, we promote environmental conservation education and awareness. We also promote personal health and wellness by providing access to fresh and sustainable food, and encouraging and identifying local physical activities for our neighbors to partake in.
Our 3 MAIN FOCUSES ARE:
1. Supporting a CLEAN community for all to work, live, and play.
2. Promoting GREEN infrastructure & environmental awareness.
3. Encouraging PERSONAL health and wellness by promoting sustainable food & encouraging our community to
participate in local nature-based physical activities.
