GREEN GLOBE INTERNATIONAL, INC. MANAGING DIRECTOR ELEVATED TO
CHAIRMAN OF REDEVELOPMENT SUCCESSOR AGENCY OVERSIGHT BOARD
LOS ANGELES, CA--Aug. 5, 2014--Green Globe International, Inc. today announced that
Managing Director Steven R. Peacock has been appointed to serve as chairman of the oversight
board to the successor agency of the redevelopment agency for Temple City, California,
continuing his involvement with the city’s climate action plan and efforts to support jobs,
community and the well-being of its citizens.
Mr. Peacock was first appointed to the board in 2012 and was elevated to the position of
chairman at a meeting held on Monday, July 28, 2014.
Successor agencies were created to administer the payment obligations and to liquidate the assets
of California’s former redevelopment agencies, which were abolished by state legislation passed
in 2011 and officially ceased to exist on February 1, 2012.
A position on the board provides an inside look at the unwind of the city’s redevelopment agency
and how it impacts future economic development, jobs and the community as a whole. Mr.
Peacock has served in this position over roughly the same period that Green Globe International
developed and launched its Pathway to Sustainability program, which is actively promoting and
assisting with the implementation of energy efficiency initiatives. More information on Pathway
to Sustainability can be found at http://www.greenglobeint.com.
“It has been a privilege to work with the government of Temple City, Southern California
Edison, the Temple City Chamber of Commerce, the San Gabriel Valley Council of
Governments, and other stakeholders during my time on the board, and I look forward to
continuing our efforts in my new position,” said Mr. Peacock. “Coupling economic development
with energy efficiency as part of a larger effort to save finite energy resources, reduce costs for
business, decrease pollution, and respond to global climate change makes for an initiative in
which everyone involved can be proud.”
“Many communities across the country have some type of energy action plan and/or climate
plan, but may lack the organization or resources to implement such a plan. A financed energy
efficiency plan, like Pathway to Sustainability can serve as a job builder – a community builder –
while meeting the goals of a city’s energy and/or climate action plan,” added Mr. Peacock.
Mr. Peacock was originally appointed to the Temple City redevelopment successor agency to
represent the interests of the Los Angeles Community College District (LACCD), with which Green Globe International has partnered to deliver the Los Angeles Green Business Certification
Program. Green Globe International recently joined in the effort to also promote the Los
Angeles Green Lodging Program as well as the Green Business Certification Program.
