Proposed Green Bmlder Program for City of Denton
Introduction
In July of 2000 the City of Denton implemented The Denton Plan, a comprehensive plan
incorporating policies, goals, and strategies for future development A significant concern
voiced by the Denton eommumty was for the protection of our envaronment in face of
unprecedented growth witnessed throughout the North Texas region Consequently, the plan
contalnsachapterdevotedtoenvlromnentalmanagement One of the specific Land
Management Strategies is that the City of Denton shall
Administer a program to acquire and manage important natural areas
that preserve wtldlzfe habitat and native landscapes Actively protect,
manage, and enhance our natural stream corridors and other waterways
as natural ecological systems, important wildlife and accessible
recreattonal areas (Page l 07)
In response to flus mandate, four types of environmentally sensitive areas (ESAs) have been
identified The four types of ESAs include wetlands, stream buffers, floodplain, and upland
habitat, or tree canopy Wlttun designated ESAs development is significantly limited in order to
protect ecological lntegnty of the area
Increasing pressure on our natural resources thxeatens the balance between quahty of life and
economic growth Recognizing a healthy hfe necessitates a healthy ecosystem, our commumty
~s committed to protecting and sustaamng these important natural systems To this end,
sustainable development m ESAs reqmres new and innovative approaches to how we plan, build,
and encourage construction and development along and within ESAs
A hohstlc~-or multi-disciplinary--approach offers a comprehensive method for planmng by
identifying ecological function and value, promoting environmental awareness and education,
and supportang long-range, comprehensive natural resource planning, our commumty can meet
the needs, of growth without 3 eopardlzmg our enwronment Specifically pertaining to ESAs a
comprehensive Green Broiders Program would provide a hohstlc, cost-effective, and promote
a business-friendly environment that would support econormc development and simultaneously
protect ESAs
As you know, cities that encourage Green Development can Slgn~ficantly influence local
building practices by makang them more sustainable and environmentally friendly Green
Building Gmdehnes also help conserve energy, water and other natural resources They serve to
protect public health and environmental beauty, as well as, strengthen the local economy and
promote a bagh quality of hfe Although Green Development represents only one part of a larger
program of environmental protection, it nevertheless proffers the opportumty to educate and
inspire the idea that nottung we do happens in a vacuum Interconnecting building development
with the local, regional and global enwronment can nntlate commumty discussions concerning
other important elements of sustainable growth and environmental stewardslup

Wlthm tins document you will find ~nformatlon regarding general pinlosopincal pnnclples
associated with a Green Bmldmg Program, specific green building practaces, and examples from
other mumclpaht~es from Texas and around the country
WHAT MAKES A BUILDiNG GREEN9
A "green" bml&ng places a ingh priority on health, environmental and resource eonservatlon
performance over its hfe-cyele these new pnonues expand and complement the classical
bmldmg design concerns economy, utility, durainhty, and delight Green design emphasizes a
number of new environmental, resource and occupant health concerns
· Reduce human exposure to noxious materials
Conserve non-renewable energy and scarce materials
Mlmm~ze hfe-cycle ecological ~mpact of energy and materials used
· Use renewable energy and materials that are sustamably harvested
· Protect and restore local mr, water, soils, flora and fauna
· Support pedestrians, b~eycles, mass transit and other alternatives to fossil-fueled veincles
Most green buflthngs are ingh-quahty bufl&ngs, they last longer, cost less to operate and
mmntam, and prowde greater occupant satisfaction than standard developments sophisticated
buyers and lessors prefer them, and are often wflhng to pay a premium for their advantages
What surprises many people unfamiliar with tl~s design movement is that good green bufl&ngs
often cost httle or no more to build than conventional designs Commitment to better
performance, close teamwork throughout the design process, openness to new approaches, and
information on how these are best applied are more important than a large construction budget
WHY GREEN BUILDING DESIGN9
North Americans currently lead a material way of life that is unsustamable in ecological and
resource terms over the next century--and bmld~ngs are major eanses of this the "ecological
footpnnt"--the productive land area required for resource extraction and to assimilate pollution
generated---of the average American exceeds three city blocks per person for comparison, the
average European requires two-tinrds of this land area, the average Tinrd World citizen one-
twelfth if all of the earth's population hved a Cahforman lifestyle, the equivalent of three
planets would be required to mmntmn them
Bmldmgs are major contributors to tins consumption and waste
· Buildings consume -40% of total annual U S energy use productmn of tins energy
emits -100 million tons of carbon d~oxlde, the primary greenhouse gas driving climate
change
· Most existing mr-conditioned buildings use ehlorofluorocarbon refi~gerants, which have
been ~mphcated in destruction of the ozone layer
· American homes each use between 10,000 and 40,000 gallons of water per year
H \Development Code~Proposed Green Builder Program for C~W of Denton v3 doc

DRAFT Versmn 1 3

I BASIC GUIDING GREEN BUILDER PRINCIPLES
Basic Design Principles.
(1) Smaller ts Better
o,*o Optma~ze use oflntenor space through careful design so that the overall bmldmg
s~ze--and resource use m constructing and operating ~t--are kept to a mlmmum
(2) Deszgn an Energy-Efficient Butldtng
o**o Use high levels of insulation, high-performance w~ndows, tight construction, and
choose glazings w~th low solar heat gmn
(3) Design Bml&ng to Use Renewable Energy
o**o Passive solar heating, dayhght~ng, and natural cooling can be ~ncorporated cost-
effectively ~nto most bmldmgs Also consider solar water heatmg and
photovolta~cs---or design bmldmgs for future solar installations
(4) Opt~rmze rnaterzal use
**** M~mm~ze waste by designing for standard ceiling heights and building
dimensions Avoid waste from structural over-design (use optimum-value
engmeenng/advanced framing) Simplify building geometry
(5) Destgn water-efficzent, low-maintenance landscaping
°7° Conventional green spaces have a tugh ~mpact because of water use, pestm~de use,
and pollution generated from mowing Landscape w~th drought-resistant native
plants and perenmal groundcovers
(6) Make tt easy for occupants to recycle waste
°7° Make prows~ons for storage and processing or recyclables recycling b~ns near
the lotchen, undersmk compost receptacles, and the like
(7) Utthze Graywater
o**o Water from sinks, showers, or clothes washers (graywater) can be recycled for
lmgat~on m some areas If current codes prevent graywater mcychng, consider
des~gmng the phunbmg for easy future adaptation
H \Development Code~Proposed Green Builder Program for City of Denton v3 doc

DRAFT Version 1 3
(8) Design for future reuse and adaptabthty
· :. Make the structure adaptable to other uses, and choose materials and components
that can be reused or recycled
(9) /tvotd potenttal health hazards (mold, pesticides, herbicides)
· ~. Follow recommended practices to mlmmlze potentially toxic substances fzom
unnecessarily entenng the building and provide for future mitigation if necessary
Provide deta~hng that will avoid moisture problems, which could cause mold and
mildew growth Design msect-reslstant detathng that will reqmre mlmmal use of
pesticides
Basic Siting and Land Use Principles
(1) Minimize automobile dependence
· :- Locate bmldangs to provide access to pubhe transportation, bicycle paths, and
walking access to basic services Commuting can also be reduced by worlong at
home--consider home office needs with layout and wrong
(2) Value slte resources
· 7. Early in the siting process carry out a careful site evaluation solar access, soils,
vegetation, water resources, important natural areas, ere, and let this mformatlon
guide the design
(3) Locate buildings to minimize environmental Impact
· .'. Cluster buildings or build attached umts to preserve open space and wildlife
habitats, avoid especially sensitive areas including wetlands, and keep roads and
service lines short Leave the most pnstme areas that have been previously
damaged to build on Seek to restore damaged ecosystems
(4) Provide responsible on-site water management
· :- Design landscapes to absorb rainwater runoff(stormwater) rather than having to
carry it off-site in storm sewers In and areas, rooRop water catchment systems
should be considered for collecting rainwater and using it for landscape irrigation
(5) Situate buddings to benefit from existing vegetation
· :* Trees on the east and west sides of a butldmg can dramatically reduce cooling
loads Hedge rows and sb_rubbery can block cold winter winds or help channel
cool summer breezes into buildings
Basic Materials Principles
(1) Avoid ozone-depleting chemicals In mechanical equipment and ~nsulatlon
· :. CFCs have been phased out, but their primary replacements--HCFCs--also damage
the ozone layer and should be avoided where possible Avoid foam msulatlon made
with HCFCs Reclmm CFCs when servicing or disposing ofeqmpment
H \Development Code~Proposed Green Builder Program for City of Denton v3 doc

DRAFT Vernon ! 3
(2) Use durable products and rnatertals
· :' Because manufacturing as very energy-mtensave, a product that lasts longer or
reqmres less mmntenance usually saves energy Durable products also contribute less
to our sohd waste problems
(3) Choose low-mamtenance buddtng matertals
· '.. Where possable, select bufldang materials that wall reqmre httle maantenance
(paantlng, retreatment, waterproofing, etc ), or whose maintenance will have m~mmal
envaronmental ~mpact
(4) Choose butldtng materzals wtth low embo&ed energy
· ;. Heavily processed or manufactured products and matenals are usually more energy
antensave As long as durablhty and performance will not be sacrificed, choose low-
embodaed-energy matenals
(5) Buy locally produced buzldzng matertals
· .'o' Transportataon is costly an both energy use and pollutaon generataon Look for locally
produced materials Local hardwoods, for example, are preferable to tropical woods
(6) Use buddtng products made from recycled matertals
· ~* Bmldmg products made from recycled matenals reduce sohd waste problems, cut
energy eonsumptaon an manufactunng, and save on natural resource use A few
examples of materials w~th recycled content are cellulose msulataon, Homasote,
Thermo-ply, floor tale made from ground glass, and recycled plastic lumber
(7) Use salvaged buddtng rnatertals when posstble
· .*.~ Reduce landfill pressure and save natural resources by usmg salvaged materials
lumber, mfllwork, certain plumbang fixtures, an hardware, for example Make sure
these matenals are safe (test for lead paant and asbestos), and don't sacrifice energy
efficaency or water efficiency by resmng old windows or toilets
(8) Seek responstble wood supphes
· $. Use lumber from andependently certafied will-managed forests Avoid lumber
products produced from old-growth tamber unless they are certified Enganeered
wood can be substatuted for old-growth Douglas fir, for example Don't buy tropical
hardwoods unless the seller can document that the wood comes from well-managed
forests
(9) Avotd materials that wdl offgas pollutants
°2* Solvent-based fimshes, adhesaves, carpetmg, partacleboard, and many other building
products release formaldehyde and volatile orgamc compounds (VOCs) ~nto the a~r
These chemacals can affect workers' and occupants' health as well as contribute to
smog and ground-level ozone pollutaon outside
H ~Developm~nt Code\Proposed Green Builder Program for Cl~y of Denton v3 doc

DRAFT Version 1 3
(10) Mmtmtze use of pressure-treated lumber
*~' Use detmlmg that will prevent soil contact and rot Where possible, use alternatives
such as recycled plastic lumber Take measures to protect workers when cutting and
handling pressure-treated wood Scraps should never be incinerated
(11) Mtntmtze packagtng waste
*.*' Avoid excessive packaging, such as plastic-wrapped plumbing fixtures or fasteners
that aren't avadable in bulk Tell your supplier why you are avoiding over-packaged
products Keep m mind, however, that some products must be carefully packaged to
prevent damage~and resulting waste
Basic Equipment Principles
(1) Install hlgh-ej~ctency heattng and coohng equtpment
*.'. Well-designed hlgh-cffic~ency heat pumps or geothermal umts (and dlstnbnt~on
systems) not only save the bmldmg occupants money, but also produce less pollut:on
dtmng operatmn Install eqmpment with mmunal risk of combustion gas sp~llage,
such as sealed-combustion apphances
(2) Install htgh-effictency hghts and appltances
*:* Fluorescent lighting has ~mproved dramatically m recent years and ~s now suitable for
homes H~gh-effic~ency apphanees offer both economic and environmental
advantages over their conventional counterparts
(3) Install water-effctent eqmpment
*.*o Water-conserving toilets, showerheads, and faucet aerators not only reduce water use,
they also reduce demand on septic systems or sewage treatment plants Reducing hot
water usc also saves energy
(4) Install mechamcal venttlatton eqmpment
.*.o Mechanical ventilation ~s usually required to ensure safe, healthy indoor a~r Heat
recovery ventilators should be considered in cold climates because of energy sawngs,
but s~mpler, less expensive exhaust-only ventllat}on systems are also adequate
Basic Job S~te & Business Pnmcples
(1) Protect trees and topsod durtng sttework
':° Protect trees from damage dunng construction by fencing off the "drip line" around
them and avoiding major changes to surface grade
(2)Avotd use of pesttctdes and other chemicals that may leach tnto the groundwater
*.** Look into less toxic termite treatments, and keep exposed frost walls free from
obstructions to d~scourage insects When baekdfilhng a foundation or grading around
a house, do not bury any construction debris
H \Development Code~Proposed Green Builder Program for Ci~y of Denton v3 doc

DRAFT Version 1 3
(3) Mtmmtzejob-szte-waste
· :o Centralize cutting operations to reduce waste and s~mphfy sorting Set up clearly
marked bras for different types of usable waste (wood scraps for landhng, sawdust for
compost, etc ) Fred out where different materials can be taken for recycling, and
educate your crew about recycling procedures Donate salvaged materials to low-
income housing projects, theater groups, etc
(4) Make your buszness operatwns more envtronmentally responsible
o:o Make your office as energy efficient as possible, pumhase energy-efficmnt vehicles,
arrange carpools to job sites, and schedule site visits and errands to mlmmlze
unnecessary driving In your office, purchase recycled office paper and supplies,
recycle office paper, use coffee mugs instead of disposable cups On thejob, recycle
beverage containers
(5) Make educatwn apart of your datly practwe
o:o Use the design and constmctlon process to educate chents, employees,
subcontractors, and the general public about environmental impacts of buildings and
how these impacts can be m~mnnzed

· Stormwater Management end Water Quality Protection
o Trees slow stormwater runoffand reduce peak flows · Tree leaves, branches and trunks help manage stormwater especially dunng light rains, by
intercepting rainfall and slowing the rate at which the rain reaches the ground,
· Water flow also is spread over a longer period of time,
· Water is soaked into the root system,
· Also, some water evaporates before reaching the ground,
· Trees can act as pollution filters,
· Canopies, trunks, roots and associated soil can filter particulate and other byproducts of
urban living such as mtrogan, phosphorus and potassium, out of the stormwater flow before
it reaches the storm drams
o Cost Savings
· Avoided capital costs for stormwatar facilities
~ Savln,,s 40% Tree Cover
· Atlanta (27%) $ 833 mllhon $1191 mdhon
· Austin (34%) $1,423 rmlhon $1620 mdhon
· Stormwater benefits represent one-tune capital costs to build stormwater retention faelhtles
providing the equivalent benefits of the trees and vegetation ~
· Between 1972 and 1999 areas wtth heavy tree canopy (50% or greater tree cover) deehned
by 16%, contributing to an estimated total annual loss of $55 rmlhon m environmental
benefits ~
· bar Quality
o City of Garland's trees remove 497,000 pounds of pollutants from the air per year and store and
sequester a significant amount of carbon each year as well a
o Houston's 1972 tree canopy removed 98 5 nulhon pounds of pollutants valued in today's market at
$247 mahon a year x
o Houston's current tree canopy annually removes 83 mllhon pounds of ozone, sulfur dl°xlde earb°n
monoxide, mtrogen dioxide, and pamculate matter, valued at $208 mflhon a year ;~
· Energy Conservation
Planting trees to shade bmldlngs and mr condmoners vall provide addmonal benefits m energy
consumption and reduction m the productton of green house gases
o Houston's trees provide the average household $72 per year m energy savings, or an estimated
overall residential savn~ of $26 mllhon z
o Reductions m energy production and usage as a result of shade treos have postttve enwronmental
effects Approramately 10 8 mflhon tons of carbon enusslons are avoided each year as a result of
Houston's shade trees a
· Protectton of Umque Cross Ttmbers Habitat *
o Cross Timbers contain stgmficant remnants ofwrg~n forests, w~th some tree-nng chronologtes
dating between 200 to 300 years old Of the remmmng remnants, they are often degraded by
various human acttvttles such as heavy grazing, selective cutting and urbamzatlon, and thetr
authentmity is rarely nottced or protected
The remaining remnants of the Cross Ttmbers are areas of stgmficant preservation ofbtodiverslty m
an otherwse lughly altered and reduced chverstty envtronment
o Protecuon of the Cross Timbers prowdes a umque conservatton oppormmty to preserve some of the
last remmmng virgin North American forests
o Old Growth Cross Tnnbers area a valuable source ofmformatton about past chmate and are
particularly tmportant at a time when chmate change ts a topic of nattonal and global concern
o Cross Timbers represent an irreplaceable resource end an unparalleled hvmg record about the North
Central Texas area prior to the ttme of European settlement
