The City of La Crescent values environmental stewardship and has been a part of the Minnesota GreenStep cities program since 2015.  The Minnesota GreenStep Cities is a voluntary challenge, assistance and recognition program to help cities achieve their sustainability and quality-of-life goals.  This free continuous improvement program, managed by a public-private partnership, is based upon 29 best practices.  Each best practice can be implemented by completing one or more actions at a 1, 2 or 3-star level, from a list of four to eight actions.  These actions are tailored to all Minnesota cities, focus on cost savings and energy use reduction, and encourage civic innovation.
