Green Building Increases In Dallas Exponentially

Mayor speaks on benefits of green buildingJust came from the Texas Green Home Summit–which had almost 700 attendees, blowing everyone’s estimates out of the water.  Mayor Leppert reaffirmed the City of Dallas’s commitment to green building, both for the health of the universe and for the bottom line.  Michelle Russo from McGraw Hill had some great data on how much green building has increased over the last couple of years and how much it’s expected to increase over time (basically becoming the only way to build), as well as what consumers are looking for.  (Presentations are expected to be posted on the website.)

But the best news came from someone in the City building department, who told me that permits are UP over the same period last year.  Now that’s some good news.  Long may it continue.
