The Village of Northbrook has established a new program in conjunction with the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (“
LEED”) rating system to promote Green building. LEED is a performance-oriented rating system for both new construction and existing buildings based on generally accepted energy and environmental principles. Participation in the Green Building Initiative is entirely voluntary and any person or entity required to obtain permits for a project may participate. There is no fee in connection with the program. Projects enrolled in the Green Building Initiative will be eligible for rebates of fees paid for the covered permits and applicants may even apply for an expedited plan review process! In addition, each project enrolled in the Green Building Initiative, shall receive public recognition.
