2012 green building code

Boise Goes Green

Boise has just adopted the 2012 International Green Construction Code which is an amazing step forward in the world of sustainable construction. Recognizing that Boise wants to be a leader in sustainable building practices, Mayor David Bieter took a giant step forward. Sadly it is not for residential remodeling yet only commercial but that is going to change some day. I fight the good fight every year.
