Sustainability Office

 

About the Sustainability Office
The City of Newark faces many challenges and opportunities related to its environment. To address these issues in ways that promote environmental, economic, and social well-being, the City created the position of Sustainability Officer in 2008, chartered the Newark Environmental Commission in 2009 and formalized the Sustainability Office within the Department of Economic and Housing Development in 2010. The Sustainability Office is responsible for supporting policies and programs that improve public health and quality of life, drive down costs through better stewardship of resources, and expand green job and business opportunities for Newark residents. The Office manages the Newark municipal “Green Team,” which oversees the greening of City operations; assists the Business Administrator by identifying cost saving opportunities in areas such as municipal energy and fuel use, waste disposal and recycling, and stormwater management; and supports organizations and residents throughout the City in realizing their goals for healthy, affordable, vibrant neighborhoods and community development.  Learn more about Sustainability Office activities at www.sustainablenewarknj.com.

  • Stephanie Greenwood – Sustainability Officer
  • Joel Sonkin – Director, Environmental & Energy Services
