Charlottesville adopts new high performance building resolution
On April 7, 2026, the City of Charlottesville, Va., announced the adoption of a High-Performance Building Resolution for City buildings. This new adoption replaces an initial 2009 Green Building Resolution and marks continued progress on the City’s efforts on sustainability, climate action and operational excellence in municipal facilities.
“With the adoption of this Resolution and the associated Standards, Charlottesville is not just building and managing facilities for today, but we’re investing in a healthier, affordable, resilient and sustainable future for our community,” said Kristel Riddervold, the City of Charlottesville’s Office of Sustainability Director.
