The Prairie State Local Government Sustainability Network is an independent peer forum of top-level municipal professionals in Illinois who manage staff and budgets related to sustainability, energy, and climate planning. The Network provides a cost-effective, accessible, and consistent platform to discuss local government operations and programming. Members exchange ideas and information with peers who share a similar economy, culture, and regulatory framework.
In 2016, the Prairie State Network participated in the Urban Sustainability Directors Network (USDN) Regional Network Partnership Pilot Program. The Prairie State Network will continue taking steps to meet the requirements of being a USDN Partner Network.
Member participation in the Prairie State Local Government Sustainability Network does not represent a municipal endorsement of Prairie State activities. The opinions expressed by network members are those of the individuals and not the local governments.
