Congratulations to the Environment Commission on their hard work which has awarded the Township of Springfield with Bronze Level certification from Sustainable Jersey. This the third time Springfield has been awarded this certification (once in 2015 and another in 2018). The certification is good for 3 years.
Getting certified has great benefits for Springfield:
- It helps save and make money for the township
- Gives access to training, tools, and expert guidance
- Creates a better future
- Promotes the township and gets it recognized
“Sustainable Jersey certification is a FREE, voluntary, and prestigious designation for municipal governments in New Jersey. Municipalities that achieve certification are considered by their peers, state government and experts and civic organizations in New Jersey, to be among the leaders in the state.”
