- The rating system is divided into three categories: Smart Location & Linkage, Neighborhood Pattern & Design, and Green Infrastructure & Buildings. All three have prerequisites which are required of all projects and credits which reward performance. There also are ten additional points for Innovation and Design Process (exemplary performance and innovative performance) and Regional Priority Credits.

- Thank you Conor. I’ll now focus in on how LEED ND can be a tool for local governments to achieve their sustainability goals.
- I think these four areas are the reason for municipal interest in LEED ND.
- Sustainable development has proven economic value Part of that is community diversity Diversity in housing, commercial, transportation, and experience will: Attract business Create jobs Provide a resilient tax base Ultimately we want to create desirable places to live and diversity is an important part of that All of this is represented in LEED ND
- LEED is a trusted system to measure and award sustainability Great tool to help facilitate community sustainability goals because so much credible info is in the system Whether you seek certification or not, using LEED ND lends credibility to your process – why reinvent the wheel Focus on how to customize LEED ND for your community
- LEED ND is a certification system, but it’s also a well researched and documented reference manual for community sustainability Two great resources that help expand the understanding of LEED ND are the Citizens Guide and the Local Government Guide Planning departments and consultants all across the country have used LEED ND in Comp Plans, Catalyst Site Studies, Development Agreements, and Zoning or Code revisions It’s probably been used as a guideline for planning documents as much as it has been used for development projects!
- Municipalities are critical to the success of LEED ND Greatest impact on sustainability is at planning scale Approx 33% of the points are vicinity related Land use control Transportation responsibility Building code implementation Municipalities can take a leadership in sustainability Together we can build a network of sustainability within our communities rather than a checkerboard
- How Can Municipalities Use LEED ND Now? Educate your staff, community and developer Bring your departments together by working towards common goals Planning, Transportation, Public Works, Building Dept Palo Alto pilot project working with developers to determine what makes sense
- You can: Assess your community for sustainability opportunities and constraints This includes: Evaluate development opportunities with the Smart Location and Linkage catagory Review zoning & code to determine compatibility with Neighborhood Pattern and Design and the Green Buildings credits Land owned by municipalities is a good opportunity to incorporate sustainability into development agreements
- You can: Establish goals and policies relevant to your community Location Efficiency Resource Protection Multi-Modal Transportation Public Health & Social Equity Energy Efficiency & Climate Protection Water Efficiency
- We are going to hear some more detailed examples in a minute, but I give you a couple quick ones from the LEED ND Guide for Local Governments Bellingham used LEED ND to evaluate their urban villages. This resulted in an understanding of their sustainability weaknesses, and a clear path based on the LEED ND information for what needed to be done.
- The old Pabst brewery in Milwaukee was lacking in infrastructure and connectivity Milwaukee used LEED ND to determine the best solutions, with a focus on walkable streets In cases like this a TIF contingent on sustainable improvements may be a good idea
- Thank you and I hope we can all help create a more sustainable community.
