Lake Worth Commissioner John Szerdi, the City's Green Commissioner

Last Tuesday night (2/17), the City of Lake Worth City Commission, educated and informed by Commissioner John Szerdi, voted to invite the United States Green Building Council (USGBC) into our charming little City. All the USGBC asks in return are 2 small work stations and access to WiFi. The visibility and recognition the City of Lake Worth gets in return is incalculable.

About the USGBC:

     The USGBC South Florida Chapter, a nonprofit (501[c][3]) organization that is governed entirely by volunteers who serve without recompense, has five extremely active Branches under its organizational umbrella -- the Treasure Coast Branch, Palm Beach Branch, Broward Branch, Miami-Dade Branch and Keys Branch. We have more than 6,000 dedicated Members, Friends and contacts, and would enthusiastically welcome you and your business to our Chapter family. It’s through the work of our amazing volunteers that our Chapter's education and advocacy efforts flourish.
     Branch activities include monthly educational programs to instructive tours of green facilities, GREENworking events, helping municipalities and school districts with their green initiatives, and sponsorship of green conferences and events. Our Branches have educated local government officials and CEOs about sustainability, brought in high-profile speakers for important conferences, worked with children and educators to teach green principles, sponsored study sessions for prospective LEED APs and GAs ... and much more.
