1 City of Langford Green Development Checklist The following Green Development Checklist creates a sustainability standard for all comprehensive development within the City of Langford. The commitments made in this checklist will be secured as a condition of rezoning, and will be implemented throughout the course of development. All applicants are required to provide supporting documentation to demonstrate how the required and optional sustainability features will be implemented. All comprehensive developments will be required to either obtain LEED certification or the standards set out in the Green Development Checklist established by Council. Applicants must submit their Checklist and supporting documentation to a qualified third party approved by the City of Langford for verification prior to submitting their application for rezoning. All comprehensive development projects must achieve the minimum overall rating of Bronze and meet ALL prerequisites. In addition to this Checklist, all applications for rezoning must be consistent with the Official Community Plan. P = Prerequisite Section Official Community Plan Point Value Official Community Plan.
