Green building seminar scheduled for Wednesday

Posted online
Meek’s Building Centers is hosting a seminar tomorrow entitled Houses That Work. A representative from Eden Prairie, Minn.-based Energy and Environmental Building Association will teach the daylong seminar, which is aimed at architects, builders, inspectors and contractors.

Developed by EEBA, Houses That Work is based on research from the U.S. Department of Energy and is meant to provide “attendees with ways to improve the performance, efficiency, durability, safety and health of the homes they build, making them a better value for their customers and incorporating green practices into their business formula,” according to the EEBA Web site, www.eeba.org.

Registration is at 8 a.m. at University Plaza Hotel & Convention Center, and the program is scheduled to run until 4:30 p.m. The cost to attend is $125 and includes materials, continental breakfast and lunch.

As of Monday afternoon, about 80 people had registered, and there is space to accommodate about 40 more attendees, according to Meek’s officials.
