PlanningBoard | 2007-03-12 | 7 | Member Cunningham noted that he was very supportive of this effort. He inquired whether the demolition ordinance would be separate from the green ordinance or sustainable ordinance. Ms. Kho noted that they were typically separate ordinances. Ms. Woodbury noted that the City already had a demolition ordinance, which already had a Recycling and Waste Reduction requirement. Member Mariani noted that she supported green building practices, and added that while it may be more expensive at the front end, the savings had been worth it in her own home. Member Cunningham noted that when green practices were designed into a building design, it saved costs from the beginning as compared with retrofitting the building. Ms. Kho noted that much of the costs were associated with the learning curve. She noted that there was a directory of green building professionals at www.apBuildItGreen.org Member Cunningham suggested using architects that were LEED-certified. Acting President Cook suggested adding this item to the Work Program discussion for Item 8-B. Planning Board Minutes Page 7 March 12, 2007 | PlanningBoard/2007-03-12.pdf |
