The City of Santa Clarita made some new additions to its popular “green” website, GreenSantaClarita.com, today. The site’s newest additional features and tools are designed to make it easier for community members of all backgrounds to go green in and beyond Santa Clarita.
One of the new features added to the site is an “Alternative Fueling Station Finder” by Clean Car Maps. Users select the kind of alternative fuel needed, along with their trip destination, and the online tool pinpoints exact the location of alternative fueling stations across California, Arizona and Nevada. A new Trip Planner function corresponds to the Alternative Fueling Station Finder, allowing users to plan travel routes according to station locations.
“Advances are constantly being made to simplify the transition to cleaner, greener practices and resources,” said Mayor Frank Ferry. “The site’s newly added features continue to make GreenSantaClarita.com the go-to online location for the latest about environmental issues and tools.”
In addition to the Alternative Fuel Station Finder and Trip Planner options, the site provides local builders with links to downloadable presentations given by the State at the City’s Green Building Code Workshop on September 19. Also, the site’s calendar section now includes a link to Los Angeles County’s Smart Gardening Program, offering tips on how to get a great looking yard while using less water, energy and resources.
