So... after I had changed all the neighborhood houses to deck them out with industrial stuff and took away all their plants and green stuff, I moved my family into Port Promise in a nice little industrial container. I had them using a bonfire for most of the day and generally being unclean and ungreen. Next morning - exactly the same as my last try - eco footprint was neutral.
I give up. This is not good.
I'm wondering now if the Bar and whatever version a person picks for Community Space are having more of an impact on the footprint then just the residential lots. My Port is stuck at neutral but Knox, Bess and my lot show the industrial sign while the bar and Maker's Market just have the neutral sign.
I'm guessing your right and all lots impact it, not just the residential. I'm playing in Willow Creek and there's a park in my neighbourhood and I'm sure it's pulling back. The park is green (which does make sense) and my residential lot can't override it very easily. It can be done, but it's work for sure.
...At this point the Gurus need to explain how to keep from slipping into Neutral. I started a new save with every lot being in Industrial accept my lot that I cleaned off:

After going to each residential lot and the bar and unchanged Community Space removing trees, bushes, flowers, Green wallpaper, flooring, and doors and windows and replacing them with windows and doors with no foot prints, the linoleum flooring that causes minor environmental loss and Industrial wallpaper, everything slid into Neutral:

And though I had changed everything, my sim's panel said the foot print was still Industrial so I played to the next day to see if the lots would slide back into Industrial. And nope, the message for the next day was Port Promise was now in Neutral.
So...loaded up another file with everything starting the same as the top picture. But then bulldozed all the residential lots and the bar and Community Space, which were both marked as not complete since I didn't change them, and the foot prints still slid into Neutral without anything on the lots:

Doing all this just makes it looks like there's no way to stop sliding into the neutral foot print. Even when using items marked for the Industrial foot print or no foot print at all. Maybe its a glitch like not being able to use the apartment balconies or there's just some combination that's being missed. I'll see what else may work besides the cheat code, but it be nice if the Gurus clarified how to keep that wonderful Industrial look.
