The first call of the Owners & Tenants working group took place on Thursday, April 29, 2010 from 2:00pm - 3:00pm EST.
Review the Overview of the Owners &Tenants working group.
Draft Scope
The Owners & Tenants Working Group addresses split incentives by exploring alternative leasing provisions and streamlining development and permitting provisions. Developing the business case and stakeholder outreach and education, may be included.
- EE in green leases and green construction
- What is the necessary approach to help structure this group’s activities?
- Is this a one-time near-term set of solutions? Are there fundamental differences between 20% savings and 80% savings?
- Leases with flexibility and more tolerance for more complex systems and varying building conditions—more active engagement of tenants as contributors to building performance
- Communications, education, and engagement of tenants and occupants
