This months Chamber clean air highlight goes
to a member in the hospitality industry for doing its share for cleaner air.
The Westin Galleria Dallas offers DART "E-Passes" to all employees.
These passes are good anytime throughout the year.
In addition, the Westin Galleria posts clean air
information in public areas and encourages cycling to work by providing showers,
lockers, and bicycle parking for its employees.
According to Michael Ehmann, general manager, "It
is our belief that every business in the North Texas region can contribute to
cleaning up our air, and we are pleased to have begun an active program at The
Westin Galleria, Dallas. We will be looking for other ways that our hotel -
and our employees as area citizens - can add to this effort."
