Title
Discussion and Action on Sustainability Analytics' Proposal to Update the Sustainability Indicator Data
Body
Sustainability Analytics LLC is pleased to provide the Sustainable La Crosse Commission with the following proposal to update Sustainability Indicator data files with calendar year 2016 information.
