"To meet the highest level of LEED certification, specific green
building strategies are incorporated into the design, which will result
in exemplary environmental and health performance," said Scott Dorsey,
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Merritt Properties. "For
example, energy consumption will be reduced with an enhanced building
envelope, efficient HVAC, high-performance lighting, photovoltaic
panels, and a building Energy Management System."
Similarly,
water consumption will be decreased through the use of water-efficient
restroom fixtures, as well as landscaping with native drought-tolerant
plant species and efficient irrigation heads. Indoor air quality will
be enhanced by a carbon dioxide monitoring system, increased
ventilation, and the use of low-VOC materials. Additional sustainable
features will include delivering HVAC via an under-floor air

In addition, sustainable
construction practices are employed on this project. A single-story
building on the site was razed to make way for the new office and
annex. The construction waste will be recycled as building
materials--diverting debris from disposal at a landfill. With demolition
completed, Merritt Construction Services began erecting the new
buildings earlier this month. The buildings are scheduled for
completion in late August 2012.
