This program helps the City of San José achieve significant cost savings through better management of natural resources at many of its municipal facilities. On March 6, 2007, the San José City Council unanimously voted to adopt a revised Green Building Policy that would require all new municipal buildings over 10,000 square feet to be constructed to achieve LEED™ Silver level certification at a minimum, with a goal of reaching LEED™ Gold or Platinum certification. As one of the five largest U.S. cities that have adopted the LEED™ Silver standard, San José’s newly adopted Green Building Policy places it in the forefront of cities striving toward sustainability.
