<p class="MsoNormal">I just wanted to put out a quick post to congratulate the Riverdale Park Sustainability Committee (‘Green Team’) for successfully submitting an application towards achieving Sustainable Maryland Certified status. If the application is
successful it means that our town will open itself up to numerous grant awards including Maryland Energy Administration awards. This was an important first step for the town and the Committee now gets to move beyond the administrative tasks towards projects
in town.<o:p></o:p></p>
