1 Creating Stronger Neighborhood Communities Through Third Party Certification on Multifamily Buildings Date: October 2, 2018

2 SPEAKERS David is a P.E. working on analytical projects at Grumman/Butkus Associates in Evanston, IL including sustainability assessments, benchmarking, energy audits, energy modeling, and other troubleshooting assessments. David has been a contributor to ASHRAE committees on building energy performance, healthcare facilities, and certification. Over the past 8 years he has worked on 116 Green Globes assessments for complex facilities including casino resorts, hospitals, and laboratories.

3 LEARNING OBJECTIVES In this session: Learn how to use the nationally recognized green building standard, Green Globes, to benchmark success. Provide an overview of employee and resident engagement strategies to advance community sustainability goals. Learn about the various energy management paths for multifamily buildings specifically within the Green Globes framework, water consumption benchmarking tools and operational strategies to incorporate these practices in to construction of a new building and existing building operations. Receive links to free resources available to project teams as well as hear about nationwide incentives available to encourage developers and building owners to align with neighborhood community s policies and goals.

4 BENEFITS OF GREEN BUILDING

5 BENEFITS OF GREEN GLOBES CERTIFICATION Third-party certification helps assure tenants, buyers and the public that claims of sustainable practices are genuine and properly implemented

6 BENEFITS OF GREEN GLOBES CERTIFICATION Third-party certification helps assure tenants, buyers and the public that claims of sustainable practices are genuine and properly implemented. Without the validation of certification to prove sustainable attributes, numerous green building benefits remain untapped. Green Globes simplifies this process and makes certification achievable to anyone.

Green Globes simplifies this process and makes certification achievable to anyone. Savings can be found through lowered operating costs over the lifetime of the building, discounts offered through lending institutions and local utility incentives.

25 GREEN GLOBES HISTORICAL CERTIFICATIONS

26 COMMUNITIES

27 FOUR TURNBERRY PLACE The HOA of Four Turnberry Place found out about a tax abatement from the State of Nevada during the summer of One of the HOA Owners proposed the idea of taking advantage of this program to the Facility Managers and the HOA community lead Board

28 FOUR TURNBERRY PLACE This is a particularly challenging community since many tenants are snowbirds and are not willing to spend money for improvements. The cost saving benefits through improvements and the tax abatement made the pitch relatively easy, according to the Facility Managers Improvements began in the Winter of 2016 The Assessor visited the site on November 15, 2016: Walkthrough activities on November 15 included a survey of exterior spaces, common areas, mechanical rooms, parking garage, central plant, loading dock, and other spaces. Documentation included corporate policies, utility data, service contracts, design drawings, and other operational data as requested.

29 FOUR TURNBERRY IMPROVEMENTS A few of the improvements that the Facility Managers are most proud of are: Updated Lighting Updated Shower heads Improvements to the Boilers Added isolation valves to the heat pumps Did a lot of work on the landscape Most importantly, before the Green Globes process, the Facility Management team had never monitored water consumption. Once they began monitoring water and energy consumption, they were able to identify efficiencies and utility dollars spent. The results speak for themselves.

35 FOUR TURNBERRY ENGAGEMENT Four Turnberrry Engagement with HOA Owners The Facility Managers realized that since condominium owners are responsible for their own filters, lights and faucets, they could better manage owner usage by offering the preferred items for sale at the lobby counter. They have seen a lot of success through this program. The Lobby Counter provides: Stock filters for in unit air conditioning units Correct led bulbs Low flow shower heads The Facility Managers now provide energy reports to the HOA that they didn t previous monitor. This helps educate the Owners but also get their buy-in to support the efficiencies that were put in to place.

36 COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT Other Engagement Opportunities for Communities Owners buying in to or initiating Energy Star benchmarking - Energy consumption and monitoring is in the control of the building owners not the property manager. Newer properties can add double waste shoots to separate recycling from trash. - Posters informing tenants about where the recycling goes and why it s important.

37 NEW CONSTRUCTION ENERGY & WATER MANAGEMENT PATHS

38 GREEN GLOBES MULTIFAMILY NEW CONSTRUCTION MINIMUM REQUIREMENTS ENERGY 1. Energy Efficient Design Projects must achieve 15% or greater projected energy consumption savings through one of the following options. Generate an energy model for the entire building, input energy use and building characteristics into ENERGY STAR Target Finder, and choose one of the following: Option 1: ENERGY STAR Score - For multifamily properties with 20 or more units. Achieve ENERGY STAR performance score of 70 or greater in the Target Finder program. See for additional guidance. OR Option 2: EUI Reduction - Demonstrate the proposed design targets a 15% or greater reduction of energy use intensity (EUI) compared to the national median source EUI.
