From the meeting
At its October 15, 2026 meeting, the BPDA approved utility and sustainability conditions for the 160 McClellan Highway project. The memo said the building would include efficient-electric heat pump systems, stormwater infiltration, smart streetlights, broadband and fiber conduit, and rooftop solar PV systems to be designed before the building permit application and finalized within six months of that application. The project team and contractor were to continue working with BTD and Smart Utilities, and the plan had to complete Smart Utilities review before a certificate of occupancy.
The board action also covered BERDO reporting and net-zero operating emissions commitments.
