At the Community Development and Human Resources (CDHR) Committee meeting the Committee reviewed the revised Atlanta Sustainable Building Ordinance.  Recognizing the necessity for the Committee to spend adequate time reviewing the recommended changes, we requested that the Committee commit to a vote on the ordinance at it September 29th meeting.  The Committee agreed and requested the following process to ensure that any final technical concerns with the ordinance are addressed:
 
September 22nd, 5:00PM: Technical Comment Deadline
Comments received by Commissioner Shelby (jshelby@atlantaga.gov) by this time will be reviewed for the next version of the Atlanta Sustainable Building Ordinance.  All comments should reference specific sections of the ordinance and provide suggested alternative language where appropriate.
 
September 25th, 5:00PM: Public Comment Review Deadline
The Department of Planning and Community Development and the Sustainable Building Taskforce will review the technical comments, and Commissioner Shelby will submit a revised ordinance to the Community Development Committee.  Commissioner Shelby will also submit all technical comments to the CDHR Committee and a document outlining the rationale for all of the changes made to the ordinance.
 
September 28th: Community Development and Human Resources Committee to review the updated Atlanta Sustainable Building Ordinance in preparation for the Committee meeting on September 29th.
 
You can download the draft reviewed at today's meeting from our website.  Please review it and submit any technical concerns that you may have to Commissioner Shelby (jshelby@atlantaga.gov) by 5:00PM on September 22nd.  Below is the contact information for Atlanta's City Council members.  Please continue to reach out to them in support of this monumental piece of legislation.
