Water District Conservation Initiative Honors Local Businesses
The Plainview Water District (PWD) Board of Commissioners recently visited Plainview Family Bagel on Manetto Hill Road to officially recognize them as a participant in the District’s Blue Business Partner Program. As one of the growing number of local businesses taking part in the initiative, Plainview Family Bagel was presented with an official certificate and program sticker to display proudly at their storefront.
“The Blue Business Partner Program is one of many efforts the District is proud to host as a part of our continued work to Preserve Plainview,” said PWD Commissioner Marc Laykind. “We’re proud to recognize Plainview Family Bagel for stepping up as a leader in water conservation. Local businesses play an important role in protecting our shared resources, and it’s great to see this initiative gaining momentum.”
The Blue Business Partner Program, launched earlier this year, recognizes and supports businesses throughout the Plainview-Old Bethpage community that are making a commitment to water conservation and sustainable practices. By implementing water-efficient systems and promoting responsible water use, these businesses are helping protect the community’s water supply for generations to come.
“This program is a simple yet impactful way for businesses to show their dedication to our shared environment,” said PWD Commissioner Andrew Bader. “All of us here at the Plainview Water District grateful to see businesses like Plainview Family Bagel embrace this effort and lead by example.”
“Our goal is to build a community-wide culture of conservation, and it starts with partnerships like these,” said PWD Commissioner Michael Chad. “The more businesses that participate, the stronger our collective impact will be, creating a stronger environment for future generations of Plainview-Old Bethpage residents.”
If you are a business served by the Plainview Water District and would like to participate, enrollment is free and includes recognition and opportunities to be featured on PWD’s website and social media platforms. Participating businesses will also receive official certificates and window decals to let the community know they are committed to preserving Plainview.
