Boston could become the first major U.S. city to require developers to follow green building standards on projects of 50,000 square feet or more, according to a report in the Boston Globe.
According to the report, city officials have announced that they will ask the Boston Redevelopment Authority to incorporate the green building standards into municipal zoning. The standards are expected to be formally adopted by the zoning commission in January following a public comment period.
