Pledge Summary

Vienna, West Virginia is a small city with a population of roughly 10,500. It is situated on the Ohio River to the west and nestled in a valley running along the river. Formerly a primarily industrial town, the city is currently in the process of redeveloping itself after the closure of many factories. One large site, a remediated Brownfield site, is in the process of being developed into a recreation area after receiving a Certificate of Completion. Many other parks and recreation areas exist in the city. One such area is a newly created "Pollinator Garden" which consists of a walking trail and seating areas and is home to numerous nectar producing plants. The Mayor is committed to saving the monarch butterfly and other pollinators with the signing of the Mayors' Monarch Pledge and looks forward to engaging the community and residents in establishing more pollinator habitats throughout the city.
