nBuilding green was for years entirely voluntary. The U.S. Green Building Council's LEED® program and other high performance building rating systems are not legislated by any governmental entity and they are not designed to be mandatory. But thanks to an explosion of state legislation and local ordinances across the country, green building methods and requirements have now been given the force of law by inclusion and cross reference within land use laws, zoning ordinances and building codes. This teleconference will identify the compelling public policies underpinning the wave of green building requirements, discuss green building practices, and explore how they are becoming part of the mandatory land use and zoning requirements in many United States jurisdictions. Pending and likely future developments will be discussed with an eye toward new policies and funding sources being put in place by the Obama administration. This teleconference will provide you professional with a solid introduction to green building as well as an up-to-date tour of federal, state and local enactments in the area of sustainable land use laws, zoning ordinances and building codes.
