9.F.20) Expand the use of healthy building techniques

The health of all of a building’s users can be profoundly affected by the quality of its indoor air.  This in turn is dependent upon physical and mechanical design (such as ventilation and location of wastes and toxics), the choice of building materials, the management of construction emissions, and building operations and maintenance. Additionally, access to daylight has been found to favorably affect productivity and health outcomes. 

20.a    State Agencies should adopt green and healthy building techniques for public buildings and buildings built with public support

20.b    The Department of Housing and Community Development should mandate that all public housing be smoke-free
