Overland Park is one step closer to adopting a new code that aims to increase the sustainability of new and updated city facilities. Last month, the Overland Park City Council Finance, Administration and Economic Development Committee voted 5-1 to recommend adopting green building objectives for city facilities. For the most part, the members of the committee were supportive of adopting a sustainability code for city construction projects, though there was some disagreement about how strict the new building objectives should be.
