Environmentally Green... Economically Green: Tools for a Green Land Development Program

This publication is intended for local-level practitioners who want to incorporate green land development practices into their work. Part One of the guidebook contains a brief overview of green land development and information on how to create a local green land development program.

Developers can use Part Two to identify ways their companies can become more resource-efficient and save money. Local government officials will find the principles beneficial as they review local regulations, such as zoning ordinances, street standards, and stormwater management ordinances that govern land development.
