The “Green Vision” of the City of Berkeley:
Green Building for Homes
The goal of the City's Green Building Program is to remove barriers to green construction, and to promote polices and practices that encourage building green. A green building is sited, designed, constructed and operated to enhance the well being of its occupants, and to minimize the negative impacts on the community and the natural environment. Green buildings provide healthy, comfortable building interiors, maximize savings through the efficient use of energy and water and limit construction impacts on the natural environment. The City of Berkeley is committed to help green building become "business as usual".
Climate Action Plan
In November 2006, 81% of Berkeley voters endorsed ballot Measure G, which established an aggressive Greenhouse Gas (GHG) reduction target for our community – 80% by 2050 – and directed the City to develop a plan for achieving that target.

From the City of Berkeley CA
The Proposed Roof for 1006 Creston Road is Consistent with the “Green Vision” of The City of Berkeley and received unanimous ZAB approval. November 9, 2010, the City Council concurred with the ZAB and dismissed the appeal by a neighbor that was blocking the start of the project.
