The City Council demonstrated its commitment to sustainability when it adopted a largely voluntary Green Building Program. Effective since January 1, 2013, the program includes access to free resources and has recently released a new Green Building Program Guide. The Guide includes information about green building best practices, the building performance assessment process, questions to ask your design and building professional, as well as utility rebates and financing options. To obtain a free copy of the guide and learn more about the program including incentives, please contact Cindy Moore, Sustainability Coordinator at cmoore@cityofgoleta.org.
