Well, the Summit was a great success - head on over to the "Photos" section to check out some pictures from that day. (Thanks to Pola, our wonderful volunteer photographer!)

We came up with 5 actions to move forward on - and they are all great! They range from the very specific to the very general, but each of them gives us some great material to work with.

Without further ado, here are the 5 actions:

* Develop rainwater, stormwater, greywater and reuse as alternate water sources.

* Require low impact development techniques for new development and incentives to retrofit existing development.

* Fifty percent of Sarasota County buildings with solar hot water heaters in five years.

* Attract sustainable/green manufacturing to the local area.

* Redesign transit system in conjunction with targeted mixed-use redevelopment zones. "Great Transit connecting Great Communities."
