[Vision2020] response to Matt's question about Green Building

[Bill London]

  Dear Matt:

  Thank you for asking about Moscow's Green Building Program. I see that Bill London already responded with a link to the City's Web page, http://www.ci.moscow.id.us/CommDev/GreenBuilding.asp That site lists other links on the subject. (Please let me/us know if you have any difficulty accessing that page.) To learn more, you may contact our Building Department at 883-7022. Jim Johnson, Chief Building Inspector oversees that program. As builders, developers, realtors and the general public learn about the social and economic benefits of fostering environmental well-being, Smart Growth will become the norm, rather than the exception. (We'll likely come up with other, less overused terms for the concept as we go along.) As the first City in Idaho to have a Green Building Program, Moscow is trying to provide incentives and offer formal recognition to builders and developers to grow the ethic of sustainability. Thank you again for your interest!

  Sincerely,
  Nancy Chaney
  Mayor
