EDMOND - A City Council Workshop to share ideas about sustainability was
abandoned midstream Monday night amid protests about the City of Edmond's
involvement in sustainable conservation efforts.

The Edmond Sustainability Forum was created by the Planning Department and
designed for Edmond residents to share their ideas and priorities for
sustainable conservation efforts in their community, said Shannon Entz,
community development manager. Police at the event estimated the audience to
number about 200 people.

"It's about saving money, saving energy, reducing waste, which the City of
Edmond and many of you have been doing for many, many years," Entz said.
