12 (~ <br />Some examples of the incentives (phase II, item d) recommended by the task <br />force are as follows: <br />1. Fast track permit processing and partial fee waivers or rebates for <br />compliant green building projects and/or alternative power systems (solar, <br />wind). <br />2. Recognition of private builders and developers who voluntarily opt to build <br />green. <br />a. Such recognition could include a listing of green buildings at <br />Inspections Department (e.g. `Green Building Wall of Fame' in <br />Inspections Department) and/or, <br />b. Recognition as Green Builders on the Orange County Inspections <br />Website. <br />c. `Orange Turning Green' sign located on building site. <br />3. Orange County hosting or sponsoring an annual `Orange County Green <br />Building tour'. <br />4. Institute a system of property tax credits during the voluntary incentives <br />program termed Phase II. We believe this would encourage new <br />homebuilders to build homes that are compliant with one of the nationally <br />recognized `Green programs". <br />Educational items recommended in Phase I could include: <br />1. Provide `building green' educational opportunities for staff. <br />2. Provide funding for `building green' education programs through the <br />budgetary process and or through grants to fund education and marketing <br />programs for `Orange Turning Green' initiative. <br />3. Green education program implemented in 2008 and provided through <br />Planning and Inspections utilizing trained staff and local professionals with <br />expertise in `green' building guidelines. <br />4. Orange County would sponsor green educational program in 2008 to <br />target builders, developers, remodelers, architects, engineers, residential <br />designers, real estate professionals and the public. This education <br />component would be funded through grants and/or provided by trained <br />staff. <br />
