This year we have a new approach. The CRC and the Louisville Sustainability Advisory Board ctjS u s t a i n a b l e want to show you how Louis- ville neighbors are living sus - tainably. Going Green doesn't mean just solar; we are expanding the variety of green homes this year and will showcase all of the amazing things people are doing to make their homes AND businesses sustainable! What do you do to make your home a green home? Maybe you've changed your bulbs to LED's or CFI's, do you collect your own rain water, only have bikes in your garage, or maybe you've managed to reduce your home's waste through creative reuse of materials. There are accessible, local businesses and community organizations that make it easy to understand ways to live sustainably. Purchase a ticket for the tour and visit community stops, talk with local organizations, and learn how to take easy steps in your life. The tour will demonstrate that there is tangible value in making conservation improvements to your home and lifestyle. The 2011 Tour of Sustainable Homes will occur on Sunday, October 2nd.

Residents may drop off leaves at designated leaf drop off bins through- out town, as well as at the City's Waste Water Treatment Plant, 1601 Empire Road. You may only dispose of leaves or grass clippings at drop off locations. Plastic bags, branches, or trash may not be disposed of at the drop off sites. If you are unable to take your leaves to designated bins, you may utilize Western Disposal's compost bins. Just toss your leaves into the compost bins and Western will take them away!
