Book Description
This introductory meeting of the Site and Neighborhood Design (SAND) program identified and addressed areas of mutual concern to the contractor teams and the sponsoring organization, the Community Systems Branch, Division of Buildings and Community Systems. Of particular importance was realizing various conservation options for the five case studies. Distinguishing features of presentations on Burke Center (suburban Fairfax County, Virginia); Greenbriar (Tidewater, Virginia); Shenandoah (Corveta County, Georgia); Radisson, New York; and the Woodlands, (Houston, Texas) are summarized. At a panel discussion, the following subjects were discussed: energy system alternatives at the community scale; architectural and engineering systems; consumer products; passive site options. Developer activities are reviewed. It is concluded that the case studies are not purely research, but to mobilize developers, utilities, and local government to work together to realize more energy efficient site and neighborhood scale developments.
