Sustainability Report <br /> The Sustainability Report was reviewed, and an updated version was distributed. The report included a LEED <br /> scorecard showing 61 points; enough for Silver. <br /> The report also included a Net Zero Energy Study, which was discussed further. Either of the all-electric <br /> schemes can be combined with reasonable amounts of solar capacity to achieve Net Zero site energy. It was <br /> noted that the extra solar required to bring the VRF scheme to net zero, compared to the geothermal <br /> scheme, and would cost about$66,000. The additional first cost for the geothermal scheme, (from the <br /> Lifecycle Cost report), would be about$525,000; making VRF the lowest first cost path to Net Zero. <br /> The material Red List was also discussed.The need for an implementation strategy, not just a policy, was <br /> identified. Discussion included how we can document without tying the hands of the project team.The <br /> Town wants to focus on materials that have a direct effect on the building occupants first. An updated <br /> strategy was distributed by TGE. Design team proposed simplifying the process by perhaps focusing on only <br /> CSI Divisions 07, (Thermal and Moisture Protection), and 09 (Finishes). Further discussion is required. <br /> Motion to adjourn was made and seconded: Meeting adjourned at 8:45pm. <br /> PBC Meeting 10.16.19 2 <br />
