§ 3-19-200. LEED™ RATING FOR COVERED PROJECTS.¶
All covered projects initiated on or after the effective date of this ordinance, shall meet a LEED™ Silver Rating and be so certified by the United States Green Building Council. Prior to the design process, the City Manager may designate a covered project as needing to meet a higher LEED™ rating. All covered projects shall also have a LEED™ Accredited Professional as a principal member of the design team from the beginning of the project.
§ 3-19-205. NON-COVERED PROJECTS.¶
For the purposes of reducing operating and maintenance costs in all City facilities, projects that do not meet the threshold that triggers compliance with the requirements of this Chapter should meet as many LEED™ credits as practicable. Public Works and Engineering and Transportation Departments should regularly review the project specifications used in bidding traditional public works projects to include the best green building/environmental practices possible.
