On August 27, Landis Homes (Lititz, PA), announced that it has been awarded LEED® Gold Certification for its new South Campus in Manheim Township. Established by the U.S. Green Building Council and verified by the Green Building Certification Institute (GBCI), LEED is the nation's preeminent program for the design, construction and operation of high performance green buildings. There are currently only a handful of LEED Gold Structures in Lancaster County. This project achieved LEED Gold certification for energy use, lighting, water and material use as well as incorporating a variety of other sustainable strategies. By using less energy and water, LEED certified buildings save money for families, businesses and taxpayers; reduce greenhouse gas emissions; and contribute to a healthier environment for residents, workers and the larger community.
