Goals
  • Reduced environmental impact
  • Minimize the negative long-term effect on the
    environment
  • Reducing unnecessary resource extraction -
    Conserve natural resources
  • Reducing waste generation - Use recyclable /
    recycled / renewable materials
  • Reduced impacts to air quality
  • Provide for environmental and interior air
    quality
  • By selecting low-emitting materials
  • By using indoor air quality monitors
  • Reduced construction and maintenance costs
  • By specifying easy-to-maintain materials
  • By pursuing alternative funding opportunities -
    Provide for aggressive and thorough pursuit of
    rebates and incentives
  • Reduced operational costs
  • Improve lighting and mitigate noise
  • Improve occupant performance and reduce
    absenteeism
  • Energy savings
  • Reduced replacement of materials

The following principles were approved by the
District Board of Trustees for the Proposition A
Bond Program on March 6, 2002.

Collaboration
The Team Finding the Best People Based on the
Project Requirements
  • Preview projects with architects and builders -
    Listen
  • Select architects, engineers and other
    professionals who are LEED accredited or request
    teaming with LEED accredited consultants
  • Green Champions
  • START EARLY!

7
Collaboration

Materials and Resources
  • Americans spend approximately 90 of their time
    indoors
  • Indoor air pollution is one of the top five
    environmental risks to public health.
  • Indoor air is often more polluted than outdoor
    air
  • IEQ impacts occupant productivity, performance,
    health, and satisfaction
