The Board of Trustees hereby establishes a Green Building Policy and Major Renovation Standards to govern all projects which meet the minimum requirements.

In order to implement this policy in a cost-effective and efficient manner, the District will select architects, engineers and other professionals who are LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) accredited as deemed appropriate as well as encourage District personnel to become familiar with these standards.
