adhere to the checklist that is modeled after the CALGreen measures (rather <br /> than multiple checklists and point sheets). <br /> Staffs goal is to receive input from all stakeholders, including the Planning <br /> Commission, present the information to the City Council, and have CALGreen <br /> adopted with local amendments, as well as the other related municipal code <br /> amendments prior to the state -wide effective date for CALGreen (January 1, <br /> 2011). As such, the draft work plan and timeline for the elements of this process <br /> are as follows: <br /> Work Plan Schedule <br /> Aug. — Nov. — Stakeholder outreach and research <br /> Nov. — Dec. — Staff training <br /> Jan. 1, 2011 — CALGreen in effect <br /> Remaining Stakeholder Meeting Schedule (tentative dates) <br /> Sept. 16 - Economic Vitality Committee <br /> Sept. 29 - Planning Commission Hearing <br /> Oct. 19 - City Council - Introduce Ordinance <br /> Nov. 16 - City Council adopt ordinance /second reading <br /> IV. ANALYSIS <br /> CALGreen regulations are projected to achieve reductions in greenhouse gas <br /> emissions, energy consumption, and water use. CALGreen will require that <br /> every new building constructed in California reduce water consumption by 20% <br /> when compared to a baseline model, divert 50% of construction waste from <br /> landfills and install low pollutant- emitting materials. It also requires separate <br /> water submeters for nonresidential buildings' indoor and outdoor water use, with <br /> a requirement for moisture - sensing irrigation systems for larger landscape <br /> projects. To ensure that all energy systems (e.g., heat furnace, air conditioner, <br /> and mechanical equipment) for nonresidential buildings over 10,000 square feet <br /> are working at their maximum capacity and according to their design efficiencies, <br /> mandatory inspections of those systems are required. <br /> 8 This staff report was prepared and published prior to the occurrence of the Economic Vitality Meeting. A summary of the <br /> meeting will be reflected in the September 29, 2010 Planning Commission staff report due to be published on September 23, <br /> 2010. <br /> 9 The proposed ordinance to adopt CALGreen with local amendments and modifications of the Municipal Code would go <br /> into effect no sooner than 30 days after the second reading. With the holidays in November and December, the Nov. 16th <br /> meeting is the only current regular meeting which meets this timeline. <br /> 1° The Pleasanton Municipal Code already has an equivalent diversion requirement for 50% of construction and demolition <br /> debris, as well as 90% for Portland cement concrete and asphalt concrete.
