Roadmap to Sustainable Government Buildings

From United States Green Building Council (LEED)

Roadmap to Sustainable Government Buildings

"The Roadmap to Sustainable Government Buildings is a collection of resources developed by governments with established and emerging green building programs. The Roadmap draws on these resources to suggest strategies for developing a green building program within a typical government entity framework. The USGBC Government Sector will work to refine and update this information with the experiences from government green building programs across the country.

The Roadmap includes:
An introduction to Sustainability Goals and an overview of LEED Certification LEED Training opportunities for staff and project teams.
Pre-project Planning support for early stages of project planning, including budgeting, contracting, procurement, and compliance.
Resources for project management of New Construction and Existing Buildings projects.
Program Administration and Green Building Program guidance for increasing the scope and scale of a green building program and suggested resources for satisfying reporting requirements.
Additional Resources list of templates, guides, and other resources created by governments to assist staff working on green building projects."
