					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;Living in a condominium community means working together. Cooperation and a
&nbsp;spirit of volunteerism are visible every day in community gatherings, board
&nbsp;meetings, even in the scheduling of time on the tennis courts. The men and
&nbsp;women who volunteer their time to work as part of board committees play a large
&nbsp;role in ensuring that the community functions smoothly and as a whole.

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;Actors Dustin Hoffman and Broadway composer-lyricist Stephen Sondheim call it
&nbsp;home. The late actress Marilyn Monroe did, too, when she was married to the late
&nbsp;playwright Arthur Miller. And actor and comedian Denis Leary lives here too,
&nbsp;with his own backyard hockey rink, tennis courts, stable and pool.

&nbsp;in her condo for decades. While everything seems perfect from the outside, Sue
&nbsp;is the keeper of a dirty little secret.

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;As the ideas of energy efficiency and &ldquo;green&rdquo; buildings keep growing, associations and managers often want to know which
&nbsp;energy-efficient improvements make the most sense for their buildings&mdash;it might be compact fluorescent lights, energy-efficient tinted windows, or
&nbsp;maybe, green roofs or more efficient heating and cooling systems.

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;There are many reasons for &ldquo;going green&rdquo; in a residential community, starting with the goal of shrinking the carbon
&nbsp;footprint and decreasing dependence on fossil fuels. But the real reason a
&nbsp;condominium complex or HOA seeks sustainable energy solutions is to save money.

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;Winters these days don&rsquo;t seem to be quite as brutal as they once were, due in part to the fact that in
&nbsp;recent years, the Northeast has had more flooding and ice storms than
&nbsp;blizzards. But pipes still freeze in the dead of night, and winter conditions
&nbsp;still take their toll on New England homeowner associations. Carefully-planned
&nbsp;landscapes can be brutalized by winter, with trees and other plantings damaged
&nbsp;or killed by the weather.

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;Utility submetering is the implementation of a system that allows a condominium
&nbsp;association or other multi-tenant property to bill tenants for individual
&nbsp;measured utility usage by making use of individual water, gas, or electricity
&nbsp;meters for their relevant utilities.

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;CHP (combined heat and power) is a marriage of electric generation and thermal
&nbsp;power&mdash;the use of an engine, usually gas-fueled, to simultaneously generate electricity
&nbsp;and heat. It can be done on a grand scale, as in manufacturing, hospitals and
&nbsp;residential districts&mdash;or less massively, in condominium developments. As successive generations of
&nbsp;systems emerge, CHP has become a leading option for lowering condo expenses.
&nbsp;CHP generators are small&mdash;lean, green, and smart&mdash;but they take a big whack out of energy costs.

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;My last column discussed how the approach to greening your individual
&nbsp;condominium unit is different from greening a single-family home. To complement the efforts private unit owners may be taking in their homes to reduce environmental impact, there are a number of
&nbsp;stepsa condominium association can take that address sustainability on a larger,
&nbsp;whole-building scale.

					  <description><![CDATA[&nbsp;The buzzword in energy today is &ldquo;sustainability.&rdquo; More than the installation of the sexiest new technology, sustainability is a
&nbsp;melding of renewable energy and energy efficiency. It&rsquo;s a blend that forms the foundation of the Northeast Sustainable Energy
&nbsp;Association (NESEA).
