Previously, projects involving renovation, historic preservation, LEED certification, or net-zero energy design were eligible for the grants. Now, buildings designed to meet the criteria of the Living Building Challenge have been added to the list.

Eligible projects are awarded $50,000 to $100,000 each to cover planning costs, including charrette facilitation, energy analysis and modeling, site planning, and registration costs for LEED or the Living Building Challenge.
