Event Details — Smart Growth America LEED-ND webinar

The new LEED-ND rating system, developed by the US Green Building Council (USGBC), is open for a second round of public comments until June 12, 2009, and SGA is calling for the public to make their voices heard on what issues in neighborhood development are most important to them. On June 8 at 4 pm (EDT), Smart Growth America will host a webinar to discuss the latest version of the rating system and guide participants through the online comment process. The deadline for getting comments to USGBC is June 14.

More information on the webinar will be added as it comes to us from SGA. For more information, you can also contact LEED-ND Core Committee Manager Elizabeth Schilling at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address)
