resources consumed, non-recyclable waste and production of pollutants. Bruce Ogletree and his wife moved to Grapevine in 1997, and it wasn’t long before he came to appreciate the unique mix of culture and opportunity enjoyed here. His love of the city and all it has to offer prompted a career change into real estate, and for the past several years he has been a builder and general contractor creating homes. In his volunteer work with Keep Grapevine Beautiful, Bruce has lent his skills as a builder and talent for working with people to numerous projects benefiting KGVB, local parks, city facilities and the citizens

of Grapevine. Most recently, he has assumed chairmanship of the newly-formed KGVB Sustainability Committee, and working with several talented recruits, Bruce has launched Sustain the Vine, helping to raise awareness and foster a cooperative competition among local business regarding sustainable business practices.

Fuel Facts & the 2nd Quarter of 2014! For those of you not familiar with Compressed N a t u r a l Gas (CNG), there are tremendous financial and environmental benefits for our community. American made natural gas is not subject to the volatility of fluctuating gas prices, and it is considered a

cleaner fuel, compared to diesel or gasoline. Engine wear is also reduced, allowing a vehicle to last longer, while it also lowers operating and life-cycle costs. According to a recent article in CNGNow, CNG costs about 50% less than gasoline or diesel and emits up to 90% fewer emissions than gasoline. In addition to providing CNG, Classic Chevrolet also provides biodiesel, Ethanol and regular fuel,

as well as a planned charging station for electric-powered cars. I would like to personally invite you to Classic Chevrolet’s Classic Clean Fuels Station Grand Opening, Tuesday, April 1, at 5:30 p.m. Classic Clean Fuels is located just north of the Stone Myers Parkway exit, next to The Thompson Group Commercial and Fleet Building. We join 14 other local CNG fuel Continued on page 3
