Established in 1971 by municipal ordinance, the Bloomington Environmental Commission (EC) is an advisory body composed of Bloomington citizens appointed by the Mayor and Common Council.

Mission:

The mission of the Environmental Commission is to advise the City of Bloomington on how its actions and policies may preserve and enhance the quality of Bloomington's environment, including the life-supporting processes that natural ecological systems provide to humans and other organisms. In supporting its mission, the EC actively participates in the city planning process, researches and reports on environmental topics, develops educational outreach activities and materials, responds to inquiries from residents, and coordinates with the Bloomington Commission on Sustainability, other municipal groups, and organizations on issues of mutual interest.

For more information concerning the EC, please contact the Planning Department at (812) 349-3423, or send an e-mail.
