Green Roofs Resource Guide
This resource guide has been prepared in partial response to Los Angeles City Council
motion CF#04-0074, Incorporate Rooftop Green Spaces as an Energy Efficiency
Mechanism. This motion directed the Environmental Affairs Department (EAD) to lead
the formation of a City task force for the purpose of developing and implementing “…a
process, program, or procedure that will require City facilities to incorporate rooftop
green spaces as an energy efficiency mechanism…” To support the Green Roof Task
Force, the EAD researched green roof options and assembled information on numerous
case studies and guideline development efforts in North America, Europe, and Japan.
