Green Affordable Housing

        Aaron Marcavitch
        Executive Director
        Housing Nantucket

           June 4, 2010
What we aren’t talking about

 Give you a chance to head for the exits….


 Commercial structures, large scale projects
 Entire community planning for green


 We are talking about:
   The general process

   Individual unit development (homes)

   Where the process can work between developers and planning
    agencies
Housing Nantucket

 Private, non-profit organization

 Creating sustainable housing opportunities for
 Nantucket residents

 Through three areas of focus:
   Rental Services
   Homeownership Services
   Technical Assistance
Who we are

 Grew out of needs for Housing Authority
 Grew out of perceived issues related to DHCD and
    30B bidding
   Sought to fill gaps in housing needs for community
   Connective tissue between many stakeholders on the
    island
   Un-biased, un-related group
   Seeks to create new partnerships with existing
    groups and with Town of Nantucket
A few examples
What is Affordable Housing?

 Generally serves those earning below 100% of Area
 Median Income ($88,900)

 Housing Needs Covenant serves those earning up
 to 150% of AMI

 The residents are town employees, service workers,
 construction workers, and health workers.

 Scattered sites – Surfside, Tom Nevers
Where do we fit within the government?

 Housing Nantucket sees itself as a “hole filler”
 We seek out issues that need resolved and fix them
 Primarily viewed as a developer
 We provide local level education, local level advocacy
 Same issues as land conservation advocacy groups
   Who are you

   Why are you involved in process

   You don’t understand the issue

 We seek to try to provide insight into housing
Our role in housing

 Organizational shift as land runs out
 Need to compact and intensify projects
 Be a better supporter and advocate for Town
  sponsored initiatives
 Seek to diversify board
 Seek to continue to expand partnerships

 Seek to be an advocate for green methods, better
  construction methods without bias
 Develop library and sources of information on green
Affordable and Green?

 One of the most important connections for
 advocates and government

 Create solutions between those who earn less and
 lowering energy costs

 Green building doesn’t cost more

 Opportunity for community consensus and
 government support of project

 Opportunity for holistic project management
Methods for Achieving “Green-ness”

 From a Governmental Perspective:
   Transit Oriented Development

   Requirements for Smart Growth Principles

   Requirements/Goals of Green Certification in RFPs

   Participation in planning process



 From a Non-Profit/Developer Perspective
   How much will it cost?

   Why do it?

   Who will benefit?

   What is my return on the investment?
Envisioning a Green Community

 Several criteria can be used

 Most common criteria is the
  LEED “standard” – but plenty
  of options (Energy Star, Green
  Globe, NAHB)

 Leadership in Energy and
  Environmental Design

 Developed by the US Green
  Building Council
Green Communities

 State Level program (Green Communities Act)
     Loans, rebates, incentives

 Local Level initiatives
     Stick – Regulations requiring building green
     Carrot - Local level incentives/ tax breaks

 Needs for connecting government with developer
     Communicate and speak the same language
     Look for methods for streamlining permitting or finding more
      carrots in the process
     Seek out innovative methods but understand the financial issues
     Seek ways to plan together during project (charettes, etc)
Building Green

 “The energy required to operate the
  heating, cooling, and electrical systems of
  the typical American house for one year
  generates more than 26,000 pounds of
  greenhouse gas – enough to fill the Goodyear blimp.”

 “Green buildings aren't just good for people and the
  environment but, if measured against long enough time
  frames, they make sound financial investments both in
  terms of reduced maintenance and operational costs as
  well as increased worker productivity.” (Or resident
  retention.)
LEED for Homes

 A residential level version of LEED for New
 Construction

 Less stringent, more responsive


 Less Cost


 Same basic areas of concern


 Uses “accountability forms” from homeowner
MAPD 2010 - Green affordable housing
MAPD 2010 - Green affordable housing
Benefits for Government

 Reduce load on infrastructure
   Water reduction

   Energy usage reduction

   Transportation reduction

 PR Value
 Chance to help influence the outcome of the project
  with a developer
 Ability to know the “rules” for green developments
 Better tenants make better communities
Benefits for Developer

 Value Added

 Better living environment for tenant

 Tends to stay in unit longer

 More responsive to management

 Less complaints

 Longer life-cycle for components
But it Costs too much!

 “...a report commissioned by California's Sustainable Building Task Force, an upfront
  investment of two percent of construction costs will typically yield life cycle savings of
  over ten times the value of the intial investment.”

 However, most developers aren't interested in life cycle savings - it works for
  homeowners and those in it for the “long haul,” such as affordable housing
  developers.


 Studies have shown that cost increases have ranged from -18% to 6%


 Average cost increase is 2.4% (less than a standard
  contingency)

 Most costly additions tend to be innovative design
  and technologies

Housing Nantucket Projects
Our Projects




3 Norquarta Rear                  2 Clarendon Rear
2 Clarendon Rear

 Conceived as a two bedroom unit
 Built with Insulated Concrete Form System
 Intended to be higher quality than typical homes


 On-island LEED professionals directed to LEED for
  Homes provider – Conservation Services Group
  (CSG)
 Initial meeting was after design was approved and
  contractor was selected
2 Clarendon Team

 Initially was CSG, Housing Nantucket, and Andersen
  Construction
 Housing Nantucket’s co-op student provided
  significant support towards end of project.

 Hired Bartsch and Radnor as landscape architect
 Atlantic Landscaping provided landscape work
 George Hull and Ryder - electricians, Adobe Cinema
  - energy monitoring system, Dave Kinney - plumber
 No mechanical engineer
Initial Process

 As our “guinea pig” project, we
  made a few miss steps in the
  documentation process.
 Could have developed a few more
  points if the project were
  submitted to the LEED program
  prior to selecting a contractor and
  developing the design.
 After connecting with CSG, we
  made a few modifications to
  project to allow for certain points.
3 Norquarta Rear

 Conceived as a one bedroom unit
 Developed as an infill site
 Intended to be a construction counterpoint to 2
 Clarendon by using stick framing

 Had preliminary conversations with CSG
 Project was never intended to reach high level of
  LEED rating
 Took lessons from 2 Clarendon
3 Norquarta Team

 Housing Nantucket and an internal project manager
    lead project
   George Pappas and Matt Maryanski were primary
    construction team
   Garry Caruso – plumbing, Ryder Electric – electrical,
    Mr. T – insulation, Island Concrete – Foundation,
   Island Carpet – flooring
   Nantucket Housefitters – kitchen
   Atlantic Landscaping for landscape construction
Initial Process

 Since this was not intended to reach high levels of LEED
  ratings, project simply proceeded as regular construction
  project
 During process, CSG technicians provided feedback on
  certain elements of construction and construction team
  knew to look for innovative
  construction methods.
 Team meeting was held during
  process, but was not as formal
  as required under LEED process.

Used exclusively in 3
Norquarta

Suggestion from CSG
was to bury lines into
foam so that they would
be insulated.




                          Spray Foam
MAPD 2010 - Green affordable housing
3 Norquarta utilizes a
“single point” heating
system. A single Rinnai
heater (82% efficient)
heats entire home.

Jump vent and fan to
move air




                          Heating System
MAPD 2010 - Green affordable housing
3 Norquarta utilized its
southern exposure to
bring natural light into
the main living space.
Dimmable CFL units
were used in recessed
lighting.




                           CFL/Natural Lighting
MAPD 2010 - Green affordable housing
3 Norquarta used
cabinets from
Corsi/Greenfield which
were all low-VOC units.

Bamboo flooring
installed by Island
Carpet.




                          Materials
Landscaping




Utilized privet to keep units separated,    Minimized disturbed areas, used
basic landscape design, gray pavers, turf   naturalized plantings, used Nantucket
                                            style landscape to blend with
                                            neighborhood
Easy Points

 Innovation and Design
   Think about project before starting

 Location and Linkages
   Plan where you are putting your project

 Site Selection
   Have a landscape plan

 Materials and Resources
   Plan how you are going to build the house

   Lots of material options

   Nantucket gains points for recycling
Problem Areas

 Water
   Runoff from roofs, rain barrels, irrigation, managing water,
    erosion
   Not Nantucket style issues
   Not able to obtain points in these areas

 Landscape Design (Site Selection)
   Not usually considered when receiving RFP land
   Required more design and attention than other projects

 Mechanicals (IAQ/Energy)
   Lack of certified engineer on island
   Some calculations complex

MAPD 2010 - Green affordable housing

  • 1. Green Affordable Housing Aaron Marcavitch Executive Director Housing Nantucket June 4, 2010
  • 2. What we aren’t talking about  Give you a chance to head for the exits….  Commercial structures, large scale projects  Entire community planning for green  We are talking about:  The general process  Individual unit development (homes)  Where the process can work between developers and planning agencies
  • 3. Housing Nantucket  Private, non-profit organization  Creating sustainable housing opportunities for Nantucket residents  Through three areas of focus:  Rental Services  Homeownership Services  Technical Assistance
  • 4. Who we are  Grew out of needs for Housing Authority  Grew out of perceived issues related to DHCD and 30B bidding  Sought to fill gaps in housing needs for community  Connective tissue between many stakeholders on the island  Un-biased, un-related group  Seeks to create new partnerships with existing groups and with Town of Nantucket
  • 6. What is Affordable Housing?  Generally serves those earning below 100% of Area Median Income ($88,900)  Housing Needs Covenant serves those earning up to 150% of AMI  The residents are town employees, service workers, construction workers, and health workers.  Scattered sites – Surfside, Tom Nevers
  • 7. Where do we fit within the government?  Housing Nantucket sees itself as a “hole filler”  We seek out issues that need resolved and fix them  Primarily viewed as a developer  We provide local level education, local level advocacy  Same issues as land conservation advocacy groups  Who are you  Why are you involved in process  You don’t understand the issue  We seek to try to provide insight into housing
  • 8. Our role in housing  Organizational shift as land runs out  Need to compact and intensify projects  Be a better supporter and advocate for Town sponsored initiatives  Seek to diversify board  Seek to continue to expand partnerships  Seek to be an advocate for green methods, better construction methods without bias  Develop library and sources of information on green
  • 9. Affordable and Green?  One of the most important connections for advocates and government  Create solutions between those who earn less and lowering energy costs  Green building doesn’t cost more  Opportunity for community consensus and government support of project  Opportunity for holistic project management
  • 10. Methods for Achieving “Green-ness”  From a Governmental Perspective:  Transit Oriented Development  Requirements for Smart Growth Principles  Requirements/Goals of Green Certification in RFPs  Participation in planning process  From a Non-Profit/Developer Perspective  How much will it cost?  Why do it?  Who will benefit?  What is my return on the investment?
  • 11. Envisioning a Green Community  Several criteria can be used  Most common criteria is the LEED “standard” – but plenty of options (Energy Star, Green Globe, NAHB)  Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design  Developed by the US Green Building Council
  • 12. Green Communities  State Level program (Green Communities Act)  Loans, rebates, incentives  Local Level initiatives  Stick – Regulations requiring building green  Carrot - Local level incentives/ tax breaks  Needs for connecting government with developer  Communicate and speak the same language  Look for methods for streamlining permitting or finding more carrots in the process  Seek out innovative methods but understand the financial issues  Seek ways to plan together during project (charettes, etc)
  • 13. Building Green  “The energy required to operate the heating, cooling, and electrical systems of the typical American house for one year generates more than 26,000 pounds of greenhouse gas – enough to fill the Goodyear blimp.”  “Green buildings aren't just good for people and the environment but, if measured against long enough time frames, they make sound financial investments both in terms of reduced maintenance and operational costs as well as increased worker productivity.” (Or resident retention.)
  • 14. LEED for Homes  A residential level version of LEED for New Construction  Less stringent, more responsive  Less Cost  Same basic areas of concern  Uses “accountability forms” from homeowner
  • 17. Benefits for Government  Reduce load on infrastructure  Water reduction  Energy usage reduction  Transportation reduction  PR Value  Chance to help influence the outcome of the project with a developer  Ability to know the “rules” for green developments  Better tenants make better communities
  • 18. Benefits for Developer  Value Added  Better living environment for tenant  Tends to stay in unit longer  More responsive to management  Less complaints  Longer life-cycle for components
  • 19. But it Costs too much!  “...a report commissioned by California's Sustainable Building Task Force, an upfront investment of two percent of construction costs will typically yield life cycle savings of over ten times the value of the intial investment.”  However, most developers aren't interested in life cycle savings - it works for homeowners and those in it for the “long haul,” such as affordable housing developers.  Studies have shown that cost increases have ranged from -18% to 6%  Average cost increase is 2.4% (less than a standard contingency)  Most costly additions tend to be innovative design and technologies
  • 22. Our Projects 3 Norquarta Rear 2 Clarendon Rear
  • 23. 2 Clarendon Rear  Conceived as a two bedroom unit  Built with Insulated Concrete Form System  Intended to be higher quality than typical homes  On-island LEED professionals directed to LEED for Homes provider – Conservation Services Group (CSG)  Initial meeting was after design was approved and contractor was selected
  • 24. 2 Clarendon Team  Initially was CSG, Housing Nantucket, and Andersen Construction  Housing Nantucket’s co-op student provided significant support towards end of project.  Hired Bartsch and Radnor as landscape architect  Atlantic Landscaping provided landscape work  George Hull and Ryder - electricians, Adobe Cinema - energy monitoring system, Dave Kinney - plumber  No mechanical engineer
  • 25. Initial Process  As our “guinea pig” project, we made a few miss steps in the documentation process.  Could have developed a few more points if the project were submitted to the LEED program prior to selecting a contractor and developing the design.  After connecting with CSG, we made a few modifications to project to allow for certain points.
  • 26. 3 Norquarta Rear  Conceived as a one bedroom unit  Developed as an infill site  Intended to be a construction counterpoint to 2 Clarendon by using stick framing  Had preliminary conversations with CSG  Project was never intended to reach high level of LEED rating  Took lessons from 2 Clarendon
  • 27. 3 Norquarta Team  Housing Nantucket and an internal project manager lead project  George Pappas and Matt Maryanski were primary construction team  Garry Caruso – plumbing, Ryder Electric – electrical, Mr. T – insulation, Island Concrete – Foundation,  Island Carpet – flooring  Nantucket Housefitters – kitchen  Atlantic Landscaping for landscape construction
  • 28. Initial Process  Since this was not intended to reach high levels of LEED ratings, project simply proceeded as regular construction project  During process, CSG technicians provided feedback on certain elements of construction and construction team knew to look for innovative construction methods.  Team meeting was held during process, but was not as formal as required under LEED process.
  • 33. Used exclusively in 3 Norquarta Suggestion from CSG was to bury lines into foam so that they would be insulated. Spray Foam
  • 35. 3 Norquarta utilizes a “single point” heating system. A single Rinnai heater (82% efficient) heats entire home. Jump vent and fan to move air Heating System
  • 37. 3 Norquarta utilized its southern exposure to bring natural light into the main living space. Dimmable CFL units were used in recessed lighting. CFL/Natural Lighting
  • 39. 3 Norquarta used cabinets from Corsi/Greenfield which were all low-VOC units. Bamboo flooring installed by Island Carpet. Materials
  • 40. Landscaping Utilized privet to keep units separated, Minimized disturbed areas, used basic landscape design, gray pavers, turf naturalized plantings, used Nantucket style landscape to blend with neighborhood
  • 41. Easy Points  Innovation and Design  Think about project before starting  Location and Linkages  Plan where you are putting your project  Site Selection  Have a landscape plan  Materials and Resources  Plan how you are going to build the house  Lots of material options  Nantucket gains points for recycling
  • 42. Problem Areas  Water  Runoff from roofs, rain barrels, irrigation, managing water, erosion  Not Nantucket style issues  Not able to obtain points in these areas  Landscape Design (Site Selection)  Not usually considered when receiving RFP land  Required more design and attention than other projects  Mechanicals (IAQ/Energy)  Lack of certified engineer on island  Some calculations complex
