Where GE Appl ian
During its Feb. 26 committee of the whole meeting, District of 100 Mile House councillors endorsed the Idle Free 100 Mile action plan. The Idle Free 100 Mile Campaign is a partnership between the District and the South Cariboo Sustainability Society. The purpose of the campaign is to encourage the public to shut off their automobile engines rather than sitting with the vehicle idling. The goal is to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Idle Free 100 Mile will be officially launched at the beginning of May. The campaign will focus on newspaper and radio ads, featuring the dispelling common idling myths. Until then, the following activities are planned for March, April and May: • A utility bill insert will introduce the Idle Free 100 Mile campaign. • The District will post Idle Free Zone signs in key municipal-owned locations, including sani-station, the South Cariboo Visitor Centre, staff parking areas, Centennial Park parking lot, Martin Exeter Hall and The Lodge parking areas. • Businesses will be invited to voluntarily post Idle Free Zone signage. While there is no charge for the signs, there will be a limited number available. • The District will provide a staff awareness program. • An Idle Reduction Policy will be drafted and presented to council. • Public awareness will be provided through a press release and on the District’s website at www.100milehouse.com. • Launch the Idle Free 100 Mile campaign. • Have an advertising campaign from May through September.
