Ideas for a more sustainable Morristown

The following is a list of ideas we received from a resident.  Although many of these are not directly related to the EcoCenter, they represent the kind of brainstorming that we encourage to support a more livable & healthy society.

1) Plan for bike routes through town…..perhaps a couple of bike lanes on major through streets.
2) Plan for maintenance and upkeep of all existing green spaces in Morristown & Morris Township…..all our existing parks.
3) Expand Patriot’s Path where possible.
4) Support Foote’s Pond dredging and continued development of walking paths in the area.
5) Establish a tank in town where people can drop off waste motor oil.
6) Plan for easy and more frequent recycling of batteries, computer components, electrical equipment, TV’s, and hazardous materials.
7) Set standards for local drinking water; testing should be done for many substances not covered by the old law; water testing standards need to be updated.
8) Set up information center for solar panels, energy saving appliances, etc.
9) Plan for more walking paths and trails.
