Establish green building design and construction guidelines for base building and tenant/interior space renovations. These guidelines can be tailored to your building and can be based on EarthCraft standards or LEED for Commercial Interior and New Construction standards.
Implementation Requirements

- Energy performance
- Water performance
- Waste management
- Indoor air quality
- Transportation management
- Occupant health and well-being
- Develop a process by which the design guidelines are disseminated to the appropriate parties and successfully integrated into design processes.
- Perform an annual review and update to the design guidelines.
Submittal Requirements
- Written green building design and construction guidelines
- Description of the communication and integration strategy for incorporating use of the guidelines into the typical renovation planning process
