Green Fleets The Mission Through implementation of this Green Fleets policy, all Service Units that own/operate vehicles and fuel-using equipment shall seek to decrease total gasoline and diesel use by 10 percent by 2012, resulting in reduced emissions.

Green Fleets Policy Background Ann Arbor City Council adopted a resolution on August 21, 2000 requesting that the City Administrator develop a “Green Fleets” policy for Council approval that reduces both fuel use and emissions of the municipal operations through more intelligent use and purchase of vehicles and fuel-using equipment. The Green Fleets Program is another important step in reducing the impacts of fuel use on public health and on the environment. Operating our fleet more efficiently provides environmental benefits and reduces the cost of operation.
