Public and Private Applications for LEED-ND

Editor's Notes

  1. This presentation uses LEED-ND as a point of reference to identify so-called “green standards” that are appropriate for Zoning Ordinance reform. Where specific LEED-ND standards are not included in the presentation, it is our opinion that these are not applicable to Zoning, not necessary to regulate, or not easy to regulate.
  2. LEED-ND shows promise in the way it is structured. The standards illustrate the link between Planning, Zoning and Building “Fit Out”. This is a more comprehensive, integrated view. This presentation examines the applicable elements from the first three categories.
  3. Many of the standards that fall outside of Zoning can be addressed through municipal planning and/or capital improvements.
  4. Bicycle storage is more applicable to zoning than bicycle network and communities can consider requiring these amenities in a manner similar to what is done today with parking spaces.
  5. Steep slopes are successfully addressed by many RI communities in their zoning and/or land development regulations. LEED-ND presents a tiered set of allowances hat can be applied for this credit. Removing slopes of a certain severity from your definition of “developable land” can help compliance with this credit.
  6. Site design standards, especially for districts that are meant to be walkable, should include these or similar criteria. Remember that these criteria are a pre-requisite for the certification.
  7. The densities here can be allowed through out a zoning district as a by-right base density, or can be offered as part of an incentive package for other tools like inclusionary zoning or transfer of development rights. These densities are prerequisites. All densities are calculated per acre of buildable land.
  8. These densities are above and beyond the prerequisite levels in most cases and do not consider proximity to transit. Density calculations are per acre of developable land.
  9. Ensure that the right blend of uses are allowed by right within the target district and stay away from the special use permit where possible.
  10. Inclusionary Zoning is probably the best tool to capture this standard and can be required for certain districts/housing types or allowed as part of an incentive package.
  11. Some of these can fit into zoning tools, while others like carpool and shared use are better left to administrative tools or incentive packages.
  12. This is an activity that is too often overlooked by zoning and should be directly addressed as both a primary and accessory use.
  13. Landscaping standards are becoming much more comprehensive as the accessibility to nursery stock and high levels of design expertise increase. Communities should approach this subject with confidence.
  14. As part of a landscaping ordinance, standards for selection of species and whether its appropriate to specific areas on the site should be spelled out.
  15. This credit can be established through site design criteria, but more important is requiring the right information for construction and post construction phases.
  16. This credit can be obtained through a variety of different standards that can be used in combination with one another.
  17. These pictures demonstrate the dramatic effect that moving away from conventional blacktop can have. Using grassed surfaces for spill over parking can also have an enormous impact on the heat island effect.
  18. Orienting blocks and streets can be a great way to facilitate active and passive solar benefits, but may have limited applicability in Rhode Island where large planned developments rarely occur.
  19. Building orientation may have more applicability and depends on the architect’s selection of roof orientation. Don’t be discouraged if the street don’t lend themselves to solar exposure. Have the developer site houses either perpendicular or parallel to solar pathways as appropriate.
  20. LEED-ND provides a good site design framework, but stays away from the building aspects. This is left more for the LEED ranking systems for buildings. However, it is important to consider which of these building standards may be appropriate to zoning. Where there are doubts as to what may be acceptable, consider incentive packages.
  21. Allowable technologies for on-site renewable energy cover many options and LEED-ND provides a tiered approach for achieving higher points with more energy production. If using this in zoning ordinance requirements as part of incentive, make sure energy budget calculations are part of the application requirements.
  22. Lighting ordinances today deal with the amount, direction and trespass of illumination.
  23. Lighting standards are becoming far more complex due to the manner in which the technology is measured, the quickly evolving technology, and the challenge of enforcing the standards over time.
  24. into this instead. Here, in this visualization, Urban Advantage shows an economically strong, vibrant streetscape, complete with many modes of transportation, green infrastructure and an obvious character and charm. Communities like this are what LEED-ND is all about.
  25. Suburban shopping malls of the past Transforming into places with multi-modal accessibility pedestrian-scale development Green infrastrucutre Mix of uses SENSE OF PLACE! Creating communities of lasting value – APA tag line
  26. Most of our town and city zoning codes would not allow many of the key features of the pics I just showed you (mix of uses, multi-modal transport, planted LS islands, density)
  27. the DEC conducted a comparative analysis of the LEED ND Pilot program and the current DEC By-laws and Rules and Regulations (copy attached). The analysis found that by simply complying with our existing regulations, most projects could automatically obtain 19 points. To achieve the “certified Status, projects need to obtain a minimum of 40 points. But this analysis also found that with relatively minor revisions to the existing regulations, an additional 36 points could be achieved, bringing the total potential number of LEED-ND points up to 55 (LEED-ND Silver rating)

  30. The Climate Action Plan for Albuquerque, New Mexico, calls for updating ordinances, sector plans and master plans using LEED-ND and provides incentives for achieving LEED-ND certification.
  31. In Victoria, British Columbia, the city issued an RFP for the Dockside Lands area, a brownfield. Development teams submitted a program (land use, density, etc.), and were evaluated based on the proposal’s alignment with Triple-Bottom line principles (social, environmental, economic). Today, Dockside Green is a LEED-ND certified plan at the Platinum-level.
  32. Public transit agencies can also serve as leaders in encouraging sustainability and LEED-ND can serve as a framework for future locations of transit service or as a guide for future transit oriented development around stations. The Metropolitan Transportation Authority of New York recommended incentives for developers who build to LEED-ND standards.
  33. Similarly, public housing authorities can use LEED-ND as a guide for the redevelopment of any sites they own or tie LEED-ND certification to the competitive bid process for redevelopment opportunities for appropriate locations. The Chicago Housing Authority, for example, issued an RFQ for the redevelopment of the Lathrop Homes and required the proposal to achieve gold or platinum LEED-ND certification. This strategy is timely since the US Department of Housing & Urban Development has included LEED-ND certification in the scoring of grant applications for the Choice Neighborhoods program.
  34. third strategy available to local governments is to provide incentives. Many local governments have found development and financial incentives to be an effective strategy to encourage green buildings and development. Development incentives include density bonuses and expedited review or permitting, which are implemented at low encourage developers to adopt green practices. Reduced parking Financial incentives – State of Illinois adopted the “Green Neighborhood Grant Act” which was intended to provide financial incentives to LEED-ND projects by funding up to 1.5% of total development costs for up to three applicable projects per year.

  36. 4 Key points to take away from this presentation and are basically the driving principles behind LEED ND Continuing to Educate and Promote a Sustainable community vision recognizing the decisions we make today will shape our future and communities that understand the interrelationships are better positioned to further the goals of sustainability. 2. Invest in green infrastructure. Protect your natural resources from development, which will significantly reduce your community’s carbon offset. 4. Prepare for a post-peak oil world. Help your community ease its dependence on petroleum by developing a multimodal transportation system. Make bus rapid transit use an integral part of new mixed-use developments. Create a Web-based carpool matching service. Issue bus passes for government employees. Change city and county fleets to hybrid or electric vehicles. Invest in energy efficiency & renewables 5. Transition from communities designed for cars to communities designed for people. Ensure projects in your community are designed with complete streets (publicly accessible with sidewalks, parkways to encourage walking and bike use, and mixed-use facilities placed at a neighborhood’s core, instead of the periphery. Create a sense of place in your communities. Less waste, more efficient, cleaner, longer-lasting, healthier development – this is what smart, sustainable development is all about
  37. All around us, we see automobile-dependent streetscapes like this one in Lancaster California. Such development patterns do not create a safe pedestrian environment, and forcing the use of a car to fulfill even simple daily needs. But we can transform this streetscape…
  38. Main street businesses and residents would love this.. Slowing down traffic, providing additional parking at the same time Attracting more people Attracting more business providing more space for multiple uses
