An eastern Kentucky city wants to go green and is asking local businesses to kick off the program.

London city officials say they plan to work with ten businesses in the downtown area on going green.

Officials say they hope the program helps the city's image and builds community pride.

“We are trying to become a garden city, we want it to stay clean, and we want people to take pride in our area,” says Sherri Mosley, London Downtown Executive Director.

Mosley says she expects the program to be up and running next year.
