Tony Moline serves as the President & CEO of the Cedar Park Chamber of Commerce. In this episode, Tony shares how he has been able to effectively participate in the decision making processes with his City. Tony shared a great example of where the City of Cedar Park wanted to introduce a “no waste” mandate for the residents and businesses in the City. Tony and his Chamber recognized how a mandate could be a hindrance to local businesses and to future growth.
In a response to this proposed mandate, the Cedar Park Chamber of Commerce created and introduced a Green Business Initiative which encourages businesses to be green by creating a point system that contributes to different levels of how green a business is. They also help businesses realize the green things that they are already doing such as LED lights and recycling that count towards the point total. Tony mentioned that in these kinds of situations, you can either look for a problem, or you can help to be part of the solution.
