15. Quote • “If builders truly want to provide ‘green’ housing, they need to put advertising and even editorial messaging in proper perspective and focus on what really matters: building high-performance housing based on actual and proven based science and independent certification processes.” Rich Binsacca

16. Energy efficiency in home building Today • 1970’s energy crisis brought about: • Tighter building envelopes • Certain level of efficiency in HVAC • Mold issues not before experienced • Significant reduction in energy consumption

17. Energy efficiency in home building Today • 1970’s energy crisis results: • Today’s needs • Less total demand on energy resources • Conservation of available resources including the use of recyclable products • Alternative energy sources • Focus on building science

37. Zoning Mechanisms / methods to provide opportunities for workforce housing Paradigm shift Traditional zoning laws vs. fresh approach PUD rules applied to smaller parcels Inclusionary Zoning

38. Quote • “Inclusionary zoning is defined as an ordinance that requires new housing projects to set aside and price a certain percentage of their planned units at below - market rates, enabling workforce families to afford to live where they work.” Dimensions Magazine June 2008

40. Quote • “When do we move past the question, when do we move past the scorekeeping and start making real commitment to the future? For too long now, we have concerned ourselves with how many points we accumulate according to this template or that rating system or somebody’s version of a program rather than focusing on the intended results and benefits that have us practicing green building in the first place.” Ron Jones

41. Quote • “Let’s make an authentic stand. Let’s exercise our intellect, our pride, and our conscience without regard to the loopholes that are made available to us. Let’s not wait for a third party to hold us accountable. Let's practice green building because we know we should, because we know we need to, and because we want to ensure a healthy future for the planet and generations of people yet to come.” Ron Jones
