<br />2017 Annual Report • Administration • St. Anthony Village, Minnesota <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />39 <br /> <br />SUSTAINABILITY <br />What is “Sustainability”? Sustainability is based on a simple principle: Everything that we need <br />for survival and well-being depends, either directly or indirectly, on our natural environment. <br />Sustainability creates and maintains the conditions under which humans and nature can exist in <br />productive harmony, that permit fulfilling the social, economic and other requirements of <br />present and future. <br />Although it wasn’t always coined “sustainability”, St. Anthony Village has long valued the <br />protection and wise use of our resources. With our mission statement “to be a progressive and <br />livable community, a walkable village, which is sustainable, safe and secure”. Sustainability is <br />an integral part of the day-to-day workings within City Hall. <br />St. Anthony has developed a dynamic, accessible online city-wide Sustainability Tour story map <br />in 2016 to showcase the City’s tremendous sustainability accomplishments. This highly visual <br />map incorporates web-based mapping technology and allows residents and interested parties to <br />locate and learn about fifteen impressive sustainability projects within the City. The story map <br />is intended to be a living tool that can be updated as more projects are completed and to track <br />progress toward sustainability goals. The map can be viewed here: <br />http://datalink.wsbeng.com/SAVTour/ <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />
