7-16-09 LEED-Homes Development

In an economically challenged homebuilding industry, investment in LEED-H and other residential certifications can build capacity for both affordable and custom construction firms - and increase how the public values green building. Builder presentations and facilitated discussion will spotlight planning processes, cost issues, customer relations.

Presenters:

Habitat for Humanity-St. Louis' LEED-Platinum "blitz build" projects, McCormick Baron Salazar Renaissance Grand LEED-ND pilot project (invited), St. Louis County's Patrician Place project, Stitt Homes (invited).

Facilitated by Jean Ponzi, EarthWays Center of Missouri Botanical Garden.
