Now thattheBullitt Center is completed, are there any regulations that require reporting?The pursuit of sustainable development and design can begin with the interest of the owner or developer or end user. However, many times sustainable design and development decisions are based on what the federal, state, or local jurisdiction requires. These might include green building laws or zoning laws focused on open space and public amenities, for example. Additionally, localbuilding, stormwater management, and energy codes dictate what must be done by developers, design teams and builders by way of energy and water efficiency, stormwater management, and open/green spaces. In addition to legal requirements, some jurisdictions create incentives (e.g.density bonuses or expedited permitting or tax incentives) to promote sustainable building practices. And developers may be required or expected to obtain certain green rating certifications, which impose their own requirements.
