 INDICATOR

New Green housing as a percentage of the total new housing
 DESCRIPTION

This indicator currently looks at the percent of new and substantially rehabilitated housing that complies with Green Building Ordinance #1995 as a percentage of the total new and rehabilitated housing. The target is to have an increasing trend.

There is an update in process to the Green Building ordinance to change requirements for new construction in the city along the lines of the US Green Building Councils Leadership in Energy Efficient Design, (LEED), but they are not directly tied to, for example, specific LEED points (even though they may contribute to those points).

 LAST UPDATED

As currently configured, data to support this indicator is not available. Once the new ordinance is in place, better metrics can be developed to reflect the intent of this indicator.
