Hamilton LEEDing the Way Community Improvement Plan (LEED CIP) Review
The City of Hamilton's Economic Development Division is undertaking a review of the existing Hamilton LEEDing the Way Community Improvement Plan (LEED CIP) that provides financial incentive towards the construction of LEED certified buildings city-wide through the LEED Grant Program.
The goal of the review is to ensure these program continues to:
- Provide property owners and developers with effective financial assistance that encourages more environmentally sustainable development including the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions;
- Meet their intended goals in terms of supporting investment and assessment growth, particularly with respective to industrial and commercial growth, and improving the environmental performance of buildings;
- Be financially sustainable for the City; and
- Align with community and Council priorities.
To inform our review, we want your feedback about our existing LEED CIP program, our proposal for an expansion of the CIP to capture other green and sustainability initiatives and to hear your ideas and suggestions for how the proposed program could be improved to further support city-wide investment and overall "green" building.
