New “Green” Meridian City Hall Awarded 100K
The City of Meridian held the grand opening of the new City Hall in Downtown Meridian on November 21. Idaho Power awarded the city $100,000 in incentives for the building’s energy efficiency.
Some of the energy efficient features include occupancy sensors, a reflective roof treatment, premium performance windows, efficient complex cooling, and demand controlled ventilation.
The energy efficient measures are estimated to save the city $40,000 per year in electricity costs.
The City of Meridian will be pursuing a Silver Certification by the Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED). A designation granted by the U.S. Green Building Council for energy efficient and sustainable building.
