The City of Seattle has been a leader in establishing policies and practices that help us be a leaner, greener government. From reducing pesticide use to lowering the fuel usage in our fleets to purchasing 100 percent recycled paper, we are doing our part to lower our impact and set an example. We welcome your feedback on how we can do even better.
