Interested in having your voice heard regarding improving the LEED Green Building Rating System? You’re in luck!

How to build a home under LEED regulations.

The U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC) Board of Directors has voted unanimously to open LEED 2009 for public comment. This is a huge step in the right direction to improve upon an already hugely successful program in the much needed green building movement. The LEED Green Building Rating System is an ever-evolving process and they realize that fact. Thus, the invitation to public comment/suggestions.

The meeting will cover 3 main areas:

  • LEED 2009 – LEED Rating System updates/revisions
  • Revision and Evolution of the LEED Certification process
  • LEED online v3

You’ve got to hurry, though. The meeting is this Wednesday, June 11, 2008 at 2 PM EDT. Here’s all the info listed below that you’ll need to have your voice heard.

First and foremost, you should read a few documents prior to the LEED 2009 meeting.

I started as a home-stalker… visiting brand new homes under construction in the neighborhoods near my house. That inspired me to write about home building and home renovation projects — chronicling homes during different phases of construction from a consumer's point-of-view. Basically, the tips you'll find in my articles are a collection of checklists for what I think should (and should not) go into building or remodeling a quality home.

LynnetteMy husband and I have been through the home building process... from scratch... more than once! (And we still have a few pieces of property that we might build on in the future.) So we definitely have some helpful tips to share when it comes to designing your dream home and building a house from the ground up. We've also learned that the 'fun' doesn't end once the house is built. Our clever home maintenance hacks will save you time and money each year that you live in the home. And... since everyone's house eventually needs a little remodeling (as has ours), we've got some ridiculously helpful home renovation tips as well! Whenever I’m not DIYing something around the house or adding to my Dream Home Wish List, you can find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites).
