Idea posted on behalf of an Outreach Meeting 2 Attendee:
Use the LEED-ND system to guide the redevelopment plans for the site and surrounding areas that are affected.
What is LEED for Neighborhood Development?
The joint venture, known as LEED for Neighborhood Development (or LEED-ND), is a system for rating and certifying green neighborhoods. LEED-ND builds on USGBC’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) systems, the world's best-known third-party verification that a development meets high standards for environmental responsibility. LEED-ND integrates the principles of new urbanism, green building, and smart growth into the first national standard for neighborhood design, expanding LEED's scope beyond individual buildings to a more holistic concern about the context of those buildings.
