The City of Glendale is now the largest Level 1 AGZA Certified Green Zone municipality in the United States, joining South Pasadena, South El Monte, Mt. San Antonio College, Altadena Public Libraries, University of Southern California, Los Angles State Historic Park, and Adams House State Historic Park as AGZA Green Zone Certified in LA County. Glendale also joins countless others nationwide.


An AGZA Green Zone is one in which routine maintenance is independently verified for low impact operations. AGZA Green Zone Certification is a structured program involving education, training, certification, and data® reporting to achieve an enduring transition to cleaner, quieter, more sustainable landscape maintenance practices.
AGZA and nonprofit Quiet Communities work together to implement the program nationwide in parks, municipalities, institutions, and businesses.
