A Green Group for Coventry City Council

A city council with 54 councillors should have at least one Green.

Where Greens hold the balance of power on a council (in Norwich, in Oxford), Green councillors have been able to secure funding for:

  • hiring sustainable planning officers,
  • bringing empty homes back into use,
  • extending energy efficiency measures,
  • implanting anti-litter campaigns,
  • planting more city-centre trees, and,
  • expanding door-step recycling programmes.
  • Electing a Green in Earlsdon would be the first step towards showing what the influence of Green party policies can do at the council level in Coventry.
