Homes certified by 'green' partnership
The Southern Nevada Green Building Partnership said Monday that the model homes at Pulte Homes' Timber Creek subdivision on Ann Road in northwestern Las Vegas are the first local homes to be certified as "green-built."
In a statement, the partnership said the model homes met the program's requirements for resource, energy and water efficiency and indoor environmental quality that exceed government codes and industry standards for new-home construction.
The Green Building Partnership, a program of the Southern Nevada Home Builders Association and the Green Building Initiative of Portland, Ore, provides an impartial, third-party inspection and verification that a home has been designed and built to program standards.
