Convert some buildings to have blue-green roofs.

Idea:

Benefits to these roof systems: - slows and reduces stormwater runoff - provides the building with insulation from the solar heat in the summer and reduces heat loss in the winter - helps wildlife such as pollinating insects - can plant a food gardend, ornamental plants, or basic cover plants.

Staff Feedback:

Thanks for your Big Idea! We love this approach and, in fact, the City recognized the benefit of green roofs in both our Adaptation Plan and Community Energy & Emissions Plan. We will be working towards implementing them/encouraging them as a solution where appropriate.
