ENERGY POLICY/GREEN BUILDING PROGRAM - PLANNING COMMISSION R
HOW THE CITY OF HUNTING TON BEA.CH CAN PROMOTE GREEDY BUILI➢ING —AN OVERVIEW The steps outlined below are based on the professional non-profit organization BUILD IT GREEN'S "City road Map for Creating a Green Building Program." Their roadmap draws on the experience of green building programs from across the nation and identifies the actions that will provide the best results for the least cost. To address California Assembly Bill 32, Global Warming, and the impact of run-off and pollution to the ocean it is recommend the program be expanded to incorporate these issues. With the City's eight miles of Pacific Coastline,development projects need to be designed to protect our beaches and the ocean,as well as be designed for energy efficiency and energy and water conservation. Our City can take an active roll in the effective implementation of these green building practices by providing education to residents, architects,designers and builders regarding green:building and the materials that may be used that still comply with Title 24 and the California Building Code. The ability to develop and implement a Green Building Program is largely a function of available resources, including staff time and expertise, financial resources and relationships with strategic partners. Fortunately,there are many existing resources, tools and programs for the City of Huntington Beach to draw from—we do not need to recreate the wheel. A basic green building program, without an overwhelming investment of time and money,can be established by reviewing other city's established programs. Further,the incorporation of a Green Building Program and its requisite guidelines, will help the city to comply with the still-evolving state mandates requiring reduction of emissions and waste sent to landfills—i.e. AB 32. (ATTACHMENT 1: IISGBC PRESS RELEASE FOR WILDINGS AND CLIMATE CHANGE REPORT) (ATTACHMENT 2: BItILDINGS AND CLIMATE CHANGE REPORT) F-01 City of Huntington Beach Roadmap for Green Building Cities throughout California are adopting civic green building ordinances that require green building on their new municipal projects. ATTACHMENT 6: Renovating Ridgehaven. Another approach, since our city isn't currently ready for an ordinance, is to adopt a resolution stating that it is city policy to build greets.

Materials explaining the business benefits of green building, which may include a more streamlined approvals process, competitive market advantages or increased profits will help builders and developers see the value to their bottom line to build Green. The building industry builds what the market demands. As more people become educated about the benefits of green building,they will demand that the design and construction industry adopt healthier, more environmentally responsible practices.The greater the demand, the faster the industry will find a way to meet the demand. Residential green building guidelines: An indispensable total for education As part of our program's education efforts, we should introduce green building guidelines to our target audiences.There's no need to develop guidelines from scratch.Well-established guidelines are readily available for Huntington Beach to use as is or modify to suit our needs. Guidelines explain what green building is, why it is of value, and how to do it(for architects, builders and developers) or how to get it(for homeowners and tenants). We can take advantage of guidelines such as the New Larne Construction (ATTACEMENT 7), Rome Remodeling(ATTACll IMENT 8)and Multifamily Green Building Guidelines. Now distributed by Build It Green,these were originally developed by Careen Building in Alameda County in a collaborative effort with homebuilders, developers,architects,municipalities, state agencies, nonprofit housing associations, and other interested parties. This series of green building guidelines is targeted toward mainstream builders and homeowners and describes how green building practices can be applied to every residential construction project, not just niche or demonstration homes. These guidelines describe cost-effective, proven green building practices; explain the benefits to consumers, builders and communities;and demystify the materials and methods used to build green.homes. One simple action our city can take is to adopt a resolution declaring the New Home Construction Green.Building Guidelines as an official reference guide,or one that we customize for Huntington Beach. If we use the pre-existing Build It Green materials, it will cost the city nothing,but demonstrates to architects, builders and other stakeholders that the city is committed to green building. This policy can take the form of a resolution that references the city's general plan goals or other policies. Based on Information Provided by Build It Green 10 City of Huntington Reach Roadmap for Green Building The Green Building Guidelines include a Green Points checklist (ATTACHMENT 9)that allows the architect,developer or builder to rate howl green a particular project is. Some cities now require that the Careen Points checklist be included with each project submitted for a building permit. This simple step has proven to be very effective in getting the community to take notice of green building. Guidelines for Commercial and Civic Buildings For commercial and civic construction, there aren't design guidelines that lay out, step by step, how to build green.. However, many people use the LEED Green Building Bating System's Reference Guides as de facto design guidelines. Although the Reference Guides' primary purpose is to explain how to achieve LEED-certification,they can be mined for valuable green-building strategies and practices applicable to most commercial and civic construction practices. Beyond guidelines Our program's education element should offer a combination of tools rather than a single tool or one-dimensional strategy. In addition to guidelines, resources to consider offering include printed materials such as program brochures or fact sheets that can be displayed at permit counters, distributed at community events, and made available on our Web site (ATTACHMENT 10); green building tours; articles placed in local newsletters; booths at community fairs and events;paid and word-of-mouth advertising; and so on.

Such organizations as Build it'Green,or the US Green Building Council can provide training for the stakeholders identified. The green team needs to organize events so that the message gets out to the right audiences. The City plays a critical role in convening the appropriate stakeholders and lending credibility to green building program. Continuing education for building professionals Training the building industry professionals is an essential component of a successful green building program. Architects,interior designers,remodelers, builders of new homes and building inspectors all need to understand the particular standards associated with green building. The City should host green building professional tra finings. If we have limited resources, we can partner with neighboring jurisdictions to offer this training. Working with the GC chapter of the U. S. Green Building council, will offer many opportunities to work in collaboration with ether cities. Reaching out to homeowners Getting Homeowners involved is critical to success of the green building initiative. Community members interested in flowering their utility bills, remodeling using " green"products will benefit from City hosted workshops and seminars. Keeping municipal staff ahead of the curve Internal training is indispensable for building support for our program and for developing expertise so that civic buildings can lead the way toward a greener community. Incentives for staff to obtain professional accreditation, attend trainings and conferences should be considered. It may also be helpful to hold regular staff meetings or browiibag sessions to discuss new green building topics or programs. Based on Inftnnation Pravklad by BuNd If Omen 12 ��J 1PQ City of Huntington Beach Roadma p for Green Building STEP 9. GENERATE.PRESS AND PUBLICITY Get the message out. Raise the City's program visibility by generating press and publicity. Different forms include: information pamphlets in water bills to educate public; educational display at permit center in City Hall; organize an awards ceremony to recognize teams that built exemplary projects;contacting Chamber of Commerce to get their participation in the City's green building programs; placing articles in newspapers; information kiosks at libraries,art center; sponsoring building tours; city leaders integrating green building messages in their presentations and speeches. Organizations such as Build it Green have sample articles and other marketing materials. Perhaps the Mayor can present annual awards,which can be offered as public recognition of exemplary private sector efforts. Or utilize the existing Environmental Board award process for this purpose. STEEP 10. ENCOURAGE USE OF TlE$IRD-PARTY RATING PROGRAMS participate in third-party rating programs, which set quantifiable standards for what green means. This will help builders bench mark their progress as they expand their green building expertise. For civic and commercial building construction,LEER Green Building Rating System is the most widely accepted national standard. For residential construction, LEEI 9 for Homes has a pilot program. California has the nation's most stringent building energy code, stormwater regulations and legislations protection against poor construction. Therefore using California-specific residential rating systems may be more useful that national ones. Two widely known California-specific systems are the California Green Builder program from(CBIA),and Green Building Guidelines. Based an Information Provided by Bu Nd It careen 13 City of Huntington Beach Roadmap for Omen Building ENIUNCING OUR GREEDY BUILDING PROGRAM Longer terra action items 1. Work with Build it Green public Agency Council- outreach to share information. 2. Remove internal barriers to green building-all relevant departments in the City must be encouraged to participate. Ongoing education of staff,. managers and elected officials is also key so that the Green building initiatives have internal champions. 3. Provide additional green building services and staff support. 4. Contribute to Build it Careen Materials Database.-online searchable database of regionally available green products. S. Provide incentives- streamlining the permitting and review processes, provide density bonuses, offer rebates, discounts, special funding. Awards dinners to recognize builders for their projects. Program evaluation In order to measure the City's program success,quantifying results is important.As the City develops its program some thought should be given to track participation,education and marketing outreach, analyze all green improvements over standard practice. Some benefits are more difficult to evaluate-improved health,reduced medical costs, improved indoor environmental quality, increased comfort; improved marketability, and higher profits. LESSONS LEARNED FROM OTHER GREEN BIDDING PROGBANS Over the past tern years or so, a number of green building programs have been established..in California and across the nation. Some of these were started by local government agencies, while others were spearheaded by utility,home builders association,or a nonprofit group.No two programs are exactly alike.. However,many successful, well-established green building programs have found these approaches to be effective: Work with private sector stakeholders to. a promote an accessible,voluntary program. of conduct effective training for building professionals reward increasing levels of achievement loved on information Provided by Build It Green 14 0 ,ome { r THE HUNTINGTON is t { ALL �a » x r i t::PURF CITYTHE 'BLLJE AND WE" RE Nj � ax Fi-,B City of Huntington Beach Roadmap for Green SulUding The following proposed.Ten Steps may assist the City of Huntington Beach to establish a customized Green Building Program.

We recommend that vital city departments be represented on The Careen Team: Planning, wilding, Public Works and Economic Development with support from Planning Commission and Environmental Board sub-committees, as well as representation from the City Council. We believe it is also advisable to establish a volunteer task force to review and submit recommendations on a draft grogram. Representatives of building professionals and representatives of Community groups would be members. STEP TWO --- ANALYZE THE HUNrINGTON BEACH MAMM AND IDENTIFY STAKEHOLDERS OLDERS Analyze the construction market and the City's General Plan to identify the primary types of building occurring now and over the next ten to fifteen years. ATTACHMENT 3: MAJOR PROJECTS LIST and CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PR®cCIIIl1;AM LIST The City of Huntington Beach's Green Program needs to be tailored to the building occurring during those years. The next action is identifying the pool of stakeholders who need to be involved with the green building initiative. The following groups should be considered: architects, engineers and designers: developers; general contractors and remodelers;14 VAC and other trade subcontractors; realtors; appraisers and lenders; landscapers; nurseries; other consultants; product suppliers; lumber yard and building-supply retailers; commercial building owners and managers; homeowners and renters; home builder association representatives; utility representatives;unions. Below is a table that lists these key stakeholders as well as many of the reasons they should get involved in Green Building: Based an information Provided by Build It Green 3 4�1 tiS3 City of Huntington Beach Roadmap for Gwen®sanding The key stakeholders in HB should cave about green building because of the positive ism act to them..

Civic and business groups and the local Chamber of Commerce also need to be included as stakeholders. STEP THREE - ASSESS CITY POLICIES AND RESOURCES The City of Huntington Beach has existing programs that address recycling, waste management, water conservation, ocean water quality,Best Management Practices, and landscaping with native plants. These programs directly relate to many of the constituent components of Green programs. The Team would need to identify how existing city policies and programs relate to the Green Program and strategize how to better coordinate activities so that the Green initiative strengthens and supports,rather than replicates, existing programs. During the assessment, City policies or procedures may be identified that may not support a Green Program. The Green Team could engage in modifying these policies or procedures, if appropriate, so that they do support the Green Program. Staff support is vital to the success of any Green Program established. STEP FOUR -DEVELOP PARTNERSHIPS There is a wealth of Green Building expertise,tools and resources the City can utilize to reduce costs and staff time and avoid replication of work that has already been done. It is important to leverage the strengths of the public,private and non-profit sectors and create a partnership.This can be accomplished by developing the Green Program in collaboration with these groups.

LEED's—Leadership in Energy& Environmental Design U.S. Green Building Council STEP FIVE —DEFINE PROGRAM ELEMENTS Define program priorities and elements. Because time, budget and staffing resources are limited, we must be strategic about where to target our efforts. We must.make sure we're clear about what types of construction predominates, who our target audiences are, and what internal and external resources we have access to. ATTACHMENT 3 : MAJOR PROJECTS LIST and CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM LIST 06 th ru 11 Identify potential program elements. We have many fine examples available to us via our potential strategic partners and the projects they have completed, and we have the benefit of seeing what has worked for there so that we may consider implementing those elements into our Careen Building Program. As detailed by "Build It Careen", the following are some elements common to many established green building programs: ed on Infomation Provided by Build It Green 6 o � �a City of Muntnngton Beach Roadmap for Green Building ® City policies and contracts.Use policies and contracts to establish goals for green building and set consistent standards. Tools include general plan language, civic green building ordinances, and resolutions to adopt green building guidelines as an official city reference. Also consider greening the city's RFQs and RFPs for new facilities and services, and including green building specification language and requirements in service and maintenance contracts. The target audience includes elected officials,city staff and building contractors. ® Green building guidelines. Guidelines help debunk myths about the costs and benefits of green building,and establish a consistent frarnework for defining what green building means. Guidelines help homeowners and building professionals identify specific practices that can be included in any size or scope of project. Residential green building guidelines have been developed for single-fancily new home construction,home remodeling and multifamily housing in California.For private-sector commercial building construction, the LEER Green Building Rating. System Deference Guides can be used as a design resource, although their primary purpose is for achieving LEER certification. The target audience for guidelines includes developers,architects, general contractors, production home builders and building owners. ATTAC NT 4: LEER PROJECT CHECKLIST ® Professional Education.This helps increase the supply of and demand for green buildings, and develops local expertise by providing how-to information.The city can sponsor educational workshops featuring green building experts. On its own or in conjunction with neighboring cities,the city can host educational events organized by the U.S. Green Building Council or build It Green. Training opportunities are available for the different building industry sectors, including production homebuilding, remodeling,multifamily housing and commercial buildings. The target audience includes city staff, builders, remodelers and commercial developers.. • Incentives. These can help promote competition within the construction market and reward excellence. Incentives can include publicity and promotion of green projects by the city. Some cities organize an annual awards ceremony to recognize exemplary builders or projects.Builders and developers also value expedited permitting for green projects. The target audience includes architects, planners and nonprofit developers. ®aced on Onformation Provided by Build It Green 7 F0115 City at Huntington Beach Roadmap for green Building Consumer marketing.This can help stimulate demand and increase civic involvement. Press releases, case studies,home tours,utility bill inserts and other outreach strategies will raise the level of awareness about green building. The target audience includes homeowners and civic groups. ATTAC NT So LIVING `GREEN' MEANS LIVING WELL—VERY WELL When defining our program elements, we must keep in mind that a green building program supports our stakeholders' goals; it is not a diversion from their primary business or values. After all, everyone will benefit from the results of a successful green building program: healthy, safe, comfortable,durable, energy-efficient,cost-effective buildings for all. ATTACHMENT 6: GREEN BUILDINGS GROW PROFITS STEP SIX -- LEAD BY EXAMPLE There's no better way to kick off the implementation of our Green Program than to lead by example. We have an ideal opportunity to implement these green building practices into the design and actual building of the Senior Center. This will make a public commitment to the city's green goals and it will raise the visibility of green building in our community. As an added advantage, we can use the process as a means to promote the benefits of green building and increase the number of green buildings in our community. As contractors gain green building experience on municipal buildings,they carry that knowledge over to other commercial projects. The biggest hurdle to green building is typically the initial learning curve; green building represents an improvement over conventional building practices and processes, so it requires an investment of time to learn new approaches. Once we have gained experience by greening one city project, our city staff will be more familiar with the variety of green building practices. It can then become the standard practice for all new buildings. !Across the country, many cities and states now require that all new construction and major renovations of civic buildings meet the LEE-D Careen wilding Rating System standards. The State of California, for example, has adopted a LEED Silver standard for all new state buildings. The state also promotes the Collaborative for High Performance Schools(CIAPS)programs for all new school construction.

Download report I,,2 iws Citing the example,of Europe, the report says more than one-fifth of present energy consumption and up to 45 million tonnes.of CO2 per year could be saved by 2010 by applying more ambitious standards to new and existing buildings. The U.S. Green Building Council(USGSC) is a supporter of S13CI, as a partnership between the building sector and the United prr s i�jt Nations is essential to promote.a more sustainable building sector in the U.S. and abroad.The LJSGBCs LEED Rating System is a toot for buildings to reduce their impact on the land while also helping to help combat climate change, USGBC continues to update the rating system,to correspond with the latest research, including SBCI's report. In November 2006. USGBC unveiled its own climate commitment, including requiring that all LEED projects reduce CO2 emissions by 50',, USGBC Also committed to becoming carbon neutral by the end of 2007, and now offers certficalijon rebates for all building that achieve a Platinum LEED rating. Achim Steiner, UN tinder-Secretary General and UNEP Executive Director, said: '*Energy efficiency, along with cleaner and renewable forms of energy generation. is one of the pillars upon which a de-carbonized world will stand or fall.The savings that can be made eight now are potentially huge and the costs to implement them relatively low if sufficient numbers of governments, industries, businesses And consumers act% This report focuses on the buitding sector. By some conservative estimates, the building sector worLd-wide could deliver emission reductions of 1.&biffion tonnes of CO2. A more aggressive energy efficiency,policy might deliver over two,billion tonnes or close to three times the amount scheduled to be reduced under the Kyoto Protocot." he added. '7here is more low hanging fruit to be harvested- Several countries, including Australia,Cuba and the European Union are looking -is to phase out or ban the traditional incandescent light bulb that h, been en around for welt over a century in various forms.The W International Energy Agency estimates that a total global switch to compact fluorescent bulbs would. in 2010 delfver COZ savings of 47G mill-ion tonnes or slightly,over half of the Kyoto reductions.We have to ask what the hurdles Are—if any--to achieving such positive Low cost change and set about decisively and Swiftly to overcome them, if they exist at all,-said Me Steiner. Key, Points from the Buildings and Climate Chance Report In the lifetime of an average building most energy is consumed. not for construction, but-during the period when the building is in use. That is,when energy is being used for heating,cooling, Lighting,cooking, ventilation and so on. Recognizing this, the report pushes toe a greater use of existing technologies like thermal insulation, sc(ar shading and more efficienL lighting and electrical appliances, as weft as the importance of educational and awareness camipaign>.Typically more than 8051,of the total energy consumption takes place during the ase of buildings, and less than 2G%during construction of the Eawk,: To achieve improved energy efficiency in building,s you often do not need to use advanced and expensive high-tech solutions, but simple solutions Such as smart design, flexible energy solutions and provision of appropriate information to the building users,".says Olivier Lurleau, SBCI Chairman and Director for sustainabitity at Lafarge. "Simple solutions can include sun shading and natural ventilation,improved insulation of the building envelope, use of recycled building materials, adoption of the size and form of the building to its intended use etc," he said.'Of course you can,achieve even better results if more,sustainable construction system solutions are used, such as intelligent Lighting and ventilation systems, low temperature heating and cooling systems and energy saving household apphances. Only by minimizing the energy Use Over the entire Life span of the building can We harvest the full environmental and economic savings that the building sector off&s.' In addition to a greater use of relevant energy saving technologies, the report stresses the importance of appropriate government policies on building codes, energy pricing and financial incentives that encourage reductions in energy consumption. it also emphasizes that the building sector stakeholders themselves, including investors, architects, property developers, construction companies, tenants, etc. need to understand and support, such policies in order for them to function effectively. The report also notes that approaches to finding building solutions Witt vary, ri developed countries the main challenge is to-achieve emission reduction among mostly existing buildings. and this can Largely be done by reducing the use of energy. in other parts of the,world, especially places like China where almost 2 tillhor SGUare meters of new building space is added every year, the challenge is to leapfrog directly to more energy efficient building solutions, the report says. http://www.usgbc.org/NewsIPressReleaseDetails.aspx?ID-3032 Page 1 of 2 Attachment No. 1.1 Press Releases 04/09/2007 1225 PM The Buildings and Climate Change report will be presented to the annuai general meedng.of th+ SBCI, which is,Convened in Rabat, hlarocco, from 2 to a April 2007.

Attachment No. 2.3 EXECUTNE SUMMARY Worldwide,30-40%of all primary energy is used in buildings.While in high-and middle-income countries this is mostly achieved with fossil fuels, biomass is still the dominant energy source in low-income regions.to different ways,both patterns of energy consumption are environmentally intensive,contributing to global warming.Without proper policy interventions and technological im-provements,these patterns are not expected to change in the. near future. On the global level,knowledge regarding the energy use of building stocks is still lagging be-hind:Generally spea- king,the residential sector accounts for the major part of the energy consumed in buildings;in developing coun- tries the share can be over 90%.Nevertheless,the energy consumption in non-residential buildings,such as offices and public buildings and hospitals,is also significant. The pattern of energy use in buildings is strongly related to the building type and the climate zone where it is loca- ted.The level of development also has an effect.Today, most of the energy consumption occurs during the buil- ding's operational phase,for heating,cooling and lighting purposes,which urges building professionals to produce more energy-efficient buildings and renovate existing stocks according to modem sustainability criteria. The diversity of buildings,their distinct uses and extended life cycle pose a challenge for the prescription of energy conservation measures.Specific solutions are needed for each situation,such as for the construction of new buildings,for the renovation of existing ones,for small family houses and for large commercial complexes. Energy consumption can be reduced with thermal insulation,high performance windows and solar shading,air- tight structural details,ventilation and heat/cold recovery systems,supported with the integration of renewable energy production in the building.These strategies apply to buildings in both warm and cold climates.Site and energy chain planning also influence the energy efficiency of the individual building. However,technological solu- tions will only be helpful when building occupants are committed to using energy-efficient systems in an appro- priate way.There are many factors that influence the energy consumption behavior of individuals,such as gender, age and socio-demographic conditions.Educational and awareness raising campaigns are therefore crucial in the process of ensuring the energy efficiency of buildings. The end of the functional service life of a building may inhibit renovation projects-when the building or its parts, are no longer suitable for the needs of the building user.In refurbishment proc-esses,basically the same rationale applies as in the construction of new buildings. Since the opera-tional energy is the major cause for greenhouse gas emissions in residential or commercial buildings to be renovated,this should be the first aspect to be taken into account when considering the improvement of the energy efficiency of building stocks.Moving towards the idea of fife-cycle responsibility and introducing effective commissioning processes will help to ensure the efficient fife-cycle performance of the building. The high investment costs involved,the lack of information on energy-efficient solutions at all levels,as well as the (perceived or real)lack of availability of solutions to specific conditions,are considered as the major barriers to im- plementing energy efficiency measures in buildings.In addition,there can be a number of organizational barriers, such as different decision making levels,privatization/dereguiabon processes,different stakeholders deciding on the energy system and shouldering the energy bill respectively,etc. It is clear that there are no universal solutions for improving the energy efficiency of buildings.General guidelines must be adjusted to the different climate,economic and social conditions in different countries.The local availabi- lity of materials,products, services and the local level of technological development must also be taken into account. The building sector has a considerable potential for positive change,to become more efficient in terms of r_ source use, less environmentally intensive and more profitable.Sustainable buildings can also be used as a miti- gating opportunity for greenhouse gas emissions under the flexible mechanisms of the Kyoto Protocol and should be considered as a key issue for the post Kyoto period. Decision makers understanding the logic behind the behavior of different actors is important for successful deve- lopment and deployment of policy instruments and technological options.Provid-ing benchmarks on sustainable buildings is an essential requirement for decision makers to take the correct course of action to encourage energy efficient buildings.Solutions aiming to improve the energy efficiency of buildings and construction activities should -.�.a:....,..-.,..-... ...r..:..+_i.. ...........,-........r wv...tirr...-w......a....L.-...I__..1-......f..-w-.-.......-.w..o..... 7wQ..................J....}......

GREEN REMODELING ILLUSTRATIONS 61 Addition or Major Remodel 62 Second Floor 64 Bathroom 66 Kitchen 68 A.ttachment No. 9.2 Green Remodel l.ng Checklist The Green Remodeling Checkt:i-st was developed to offer building professionals; homeowners and municipalities a tool to assess how green a particular remodelin- 9. project is. It is based on -the green building methods and materials described in SZ Chapter Three. The Green Remodeling Checklist was developed in coordination with 0 m local builders, city planners'and building officials. ;x Because remodeling projects vary so widely in scope—from a bathroom re--do to a whore-house rebuild it: is not feasible to use the c.hecklist'to assign :a "final .score for projects. Every effort should be made, however, to incorporate as many 'of the measures as possible into your remodeling projects. These measures were chosen based on their ability to improve the home and the environment, as well as on their ease of implementation and relative low cost. Consider these measures as a starting point for the greening of your project. To download an electronic version of the Green Remodeling Checklist, go to virww.BuildGreenPlow.org. The Green Remodeling Checklist is also the basis of GreenPoint Rated, a third-party home rating program offered by Build It Green.

What is "Green" Building? • Use of environmentally friendly building materials • Long-term economic returns via lower electric and water utility costs • Reduced environmental impact — Diverting Construction and Demolition Waste to Recycling — Reduced Emissions-AB 32 • Enhanced health and productivity — Improved Indoor Environmental Quality — No Sick Building Syndrome 1 ..... ._. The Green Trend • State mandated that developers building more than 50 new single family homes are required to offer an option of a solar energy system to the homeowner beginning January 1,2011 (SB 1-Million Solar Roofs Initiative) • Environmentally friendly materials readily accessible and more affordable now: - Recycled denim for insulation:cotton batting with no formaldehyde off-gasing, higher R-Value's than typical fiberglass insulation-R20-R30 - LOW VOC(Volatile Organic Compound)carpeting-variety of color choices - LOW VOC paint-comparable price,variety of color choices - LOW VOC adhesives - Particle board-made wdhout formaldehyde • Mainstream firms are embracing green to gain market advantage and competitive edge:Walmart,WholeFoods, Disney,Time Warner,Starbucks, Patagonia,Bank of America,Caterpillar Going Green Gives you Green Back • Significant amount of money saved via energy efficiency-life cycle savings - A building's initial construction costs represent only 20%-30%a of the building's entire costs over its 30 to 40 year life • Differentiates developers and home owners from their competitors - Ladera Ranch in Mission Viejo-Terramore Development:Resale value of their green homes has provided home sellers with higher appreciation than neighboring developments primarily because of PV implementation - Hines(one of the world's largest commercial real estate developers): Increased their lease rates for their green buildings-it gave them market differentiation 2 Green Building Makes Cents! • When HB implements a Green Development Program, it may involve further incentives for developers and home remodelers by providing entitlements(elimination of certain building permit fees),expedited permit processing,expedited plan-check and information on rebates and tax credits — In 2006 there were approximately 400,000 square feet of remodels built.Nationally,the remodeling market was projected to be a$291.5 billion industry in 2006. Remodels should be the primary focus of any green development program implemented in HB. Nv Municipal Building Rehab Success Greenhaven at Ridgehaven • City of San Diego paid just over 3M for a 73,000 square foot building in the late 90's(approx$42. a square foot). — They paid approx 2.7M to rehab the building utilizing their Green Building standards(approx$37.a square foot) • A sister building to Ridgehaven paid an average monthly utility bill of$10,750.The"green building,"with its energy efficient retro-fit pays just$3,750. • Ridgehaven now uses 60%less energy, and they have calculated that their pay back from the rehab was within the first 4 years 3 AB 32 Direction • Reduced Emission Commitments: — 2000 levels by 2010 (11% reduction) — 1990 levels by 2020 (25% reduction) — 80% beneath 1990 by 2050 (Science specification) • Plan by 1/09 and Regulations by 1/11 • Reporting by 1/09; Cap phased in starting 2012 Currently Leading By Example • City staff has already begun implementing green elements in approved projects — Proactively - Our Fire Department has recently incorporated some green building practices into the rehab of 3 fire buildings — Bluff top restrooms — Pier restrooms — Senior Center 4 Huntington Beach Moving Forward Establish a Green Team so that the city can formulate what type of green policy it wants — Road Map: Pages 3- 5 provides a list of potential team members — Planning, Building, Public Works and Economic Development with support from Planning Commission and Environmental Board sub-committees, as well as representation from the City Council Potential Implementation • Areas the Green Team can consider when creating a Green Building pilot program — Meet CA's Energy Star requirements and exceed Title 24 energy usage standards by at least 20% — Weather based landscape water controllers — Low VOC paints and carpets — Diverting construction/demo waste to recycling versus landfill — Meeting point thresholds for LEED,US Build It Green's Green Point Rater,or a City generated point system to obtain incentives like expedited plan check,reduced fees,or entitlements 5 Short Term Achievable Goal • Get sample materials - Create a Green Building Resource Center — Homeowners/contractors/architects captive on the 3rd floor- let's make productive use of their wait time since they're our target audience Benefits • Side benefit of implementing a green policy is that it will get us closer to complying with AB - 32 • Get ahead of the impending wave - instead of being overcome by it 6 ft vpo 7 , I ' 11 Presented by: Chandra K.
