About this file
This is a Purchasing Sustainability Statement issued by the City of Lewisville, Texas, establishing the city's commitment to sustainable procurement practices as part of the Lewisville 2025 strategic plan. The document outlines the city's definition of sustainability and commits the Purchasing Division to support sustainable management practices through procurement of materials, products, and services that demonstrate environmental stewardship alongside fiscal and social responsibility. The city will evaluate products and services based on environmental factors including recycled content, product life cycle, waste reduction, energy efficiency, toxicity levels, water consumption, and human health impacts. Prospective vendors may be required to provide specific information addressing environmental impacts through a standardized questionnaire that addresses whether products or services reduce energy consumption, reduce toxicity and emissions, reduce waste, contain recyclable materials, reduce water consumption, or provide other environmental benefits.
This sustainability statement applies to all procurement by the City of Lewisville and reflects the city's broader vision for a thriving, desirable community that balances current quality of life with environmental stewardship for future generations. The statement requires that all goods and services provided must comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act and related regulations. The document does not specify pricing terms, contract duration, renewal options, or funding sources, as it serves as a general purchasing policy rather than a specific contract solicitation.

Lewisville 2025 - Sustainability
Lewisville City Council unanimously adopted the Lewisville 2025 plan on July 14, 2014. The plan was developed after more than a year of public input and discussion that garnered hundreds of ideas and suggestions. That input was studied extensively by the Lewisville 2025 Steering Committee, City staff and professional consultants and formulated into the Lewisville 2025 plan. The plan provides a clear shared vision for the kind of community Lewisville wants to be when it turns 100 years old in 2025: a place that people choose to live, work and visit.
Lewisville 2025 identifies nine “Big Moves” to guide the community’s efforts toward being a thriving, desirable community. One of these Big Moves is sustainability. Lewisville defines sustainability in this way:
Limited resources, such as land, water, energy, clean air, natural assets, and public funds are used efficiently to provide a desirable quality of life and business climate today without reducing Lewisville’s ability to provide the desired quality of life and business climate for success of future generations.
The Purchasing Division’s goal is to support and encourage sustainable management practices through the purchase and use of materials, products and services that demonstrate environmental stewardship as well as fiscal and social responsibility. To that end, Lewisville will consider environmental factors such as but not limited to, recycled content, product life cycle, waste reduction, energy efficiency, toxicity, water consumption, and human health impacts when making purchasing recommendations. To assist City staff with evaluating these factors, prospective vendors may be required to provide specific information about their products and services that addresses environmental impacts.
