Red, White & Green!!! Update on the Green Project
Hello TRLP folks
Well, I did another presentation, this time out at the Lake Cities Association of Realtors. It went really well thanks to Rodney's planning. I am still willing and happy to do more of these presentations so please help me book places.
We got our rain water reclamation project nearly finished. We guttered the whole house and we went from one rain barrel to three barrels and two 330 gallon tanks (they were formerly Hawaian Punch Fruit Box juice holders that we found at a feed store.
I'm still working on the micro-turbine electric generators. I've spoken to two electricians who think it's not a serious system so I'm still considering what to do.
Hope you are all doing well. Sorry I missed the graduation. I hope you guys can come to lunch on the fourth Thursday of each month at Cantina Laredo (Tollway & Trinity Mills).

IRS Increases Mileage Rates through 12/31/08
IR-2008-82, June 23, 2008
WASHINGTON — The Internal Revenue Service today announced an increase in the optional standard mileage rates for the final six months of 2008. Taxpayers may use the optional standard rates to calculate the deductible costs of operating an automobile for business, charitable, medical or moving purposes.
The rate will increase to 58.5 cents a mile for all business miles driven from July 1, 2008, through Dec. 31, 2008. This is an increase of eight (8) cents from the 50.5 cent rate in effect for the first six months of 2008, as set forth in Rev. Proc. 2007-70.
In recognition of recent gasoline price increases, the IRS made this special adjustment for the final months of 2008. The IRS normally updates the mileage rates once a year in the fall for the next calendar year.
"Rising gas prices are having a major impact on individual Americans. Given the increase in prices, the IRS is adjusting the standard mileage rates to better reflect the real cost of operating an automobile," said IRS Commissioner Doug Shulman. "We want the reimbursement rate to be fair to taxpayers."
While gasoline is a significant factor in the mileage figure, other items enter into the calculation of mileage rates, such as depreciation and insurance and other fixed and variable costs.
The optional business standard mileage rate is used to compute the deductible costs of operating an automobile for business use in lieu of tracking actual costs. This rate is also used as a benchmark by the federal government and many businesses to reimburse their employees for mileage.
The new six-month rate for computing deductible medical or moving expenses will also increase by eight (8) cents to 27 cents a mile, up from 19 cents for the first six months of 2008. The rate for providing services for charitable organizations is set by statute, not the IRS, and remains at 14 cents a mile.
The new rates are contained in Announcement 2008-63 on the optional standard mileage rates.
Taxpayers always have the option of calculating the actual costs of using their vehicle rather than using the standard mileage rates.

Press Training Pays Off
Many of you know I have volunteered my time night & day to work on the campaign of Mayor Becky Miller of Carrollton. I love this lady and believe in her completely. Last night she lost her re-election bid, due in large part to the inability to handle the press.
Her opponent thought she was lying about elements of her personal life that had nothing to do with her time in office. She didn't feel it was his business at all. But he's a smug, arrogant man who wasn't going to be denied, so he got the Dallas Morning News interested in the story. When the reporter called and asked her for specific details, she knew Ron Branson was behind it and refused to work with the reporter and instead told the reporter to go find the information herself. Major mistake. Obviously you want to work with the press, not against them. She was simply trying to not give Branson the information he wanted but instead gave the reporter a reason to dig in deep.
The article that was written did not have any supporting documentation and input from the Mayor's daughter that verified her story did not appear. The article was completely one-sided and made the mayor look horrible. The afternoon that the article hit, her team got together and that's where the TRLP training paid off. In two hours we had a statement written, four news networks on her front yard with cameras and mics, and a candidate dressed, prepped and ready. We held the Mayor to the statement and didn't allow probbing, invasive quesions and passed out copies of the statement to the press. That evening the only thing the reporters could quote was what we gave them. We controlled the message.
For the next 4 days between the inaccurate article and the end of the election we worked with the press, wrote releases, wrote calling scripts and monitored election results. The final act was to write the concession speech and release it to the press.
I'm really sad because 1) Becky Miller is not the liar the DMN made her out to be and 2) a really bad candidate got elected Mayor. But in the end, the training I received in TRLP helped pull a campaign in crisis back up to only a 400 vote lost. It could have been signifigantly worse if the article had been left unanswered or had be answered poorly.
Thank you TRLP. I'm really glad to have had this training!

Inspiration
Sometimes the most powerful learning can come from validating what you know through affirmation by peers. I personally see the hard work that has been put into cultivating leaders through this program and the high quality of all the speakers and presentations in their own way. As a participant in National education committees for NARPM I know the challenges. Naturally actually doing things is where you hone those skills but lets refer to our mantra "Leadership is inspiring others to accomplish goals and objectives." -Class III- ..........Inspiration...... that's what its about. ..........Maybe we inspired one of our own to step up and work to bring even more powerful education topics and speakers into the program.

A few points about TRLP Sessions...please comment back
I had a conversation with Gigi at Cantina Laredo and she encouraged me to post the summary here. Basically, several of us felt underwelmed by todays sessions and the sessions from the diversity training and it lead to a series of conversations that I'm going to sum up this way:
1. We **love** TRLP and the people in the group we're working beside, and we **really** appreciate with work Gigi, Diane and the others put into this.
2. We seem most impressed with the community, city, county, industry and association leaders who spend their time helping us, along with activities that let us interact and work together.
3. We learn more about true diversity in our discussions of each other's individual backgrounds and experiences rather than sophomoric exercises and watching videos that sugarcoat the issue.
4. We learn more about efficient meetings by having them, instead of running well over time while lecturing us about staying on point. A thirty minute video on bad meetings seemed like a odd and ineffective choice.
5. We learn more about our association and our ability to be leaders within it by discussing the interworkings, the challenges & successes of our organization instead of learning how to apply for a business loan.
6. Those of us in this class are not at a 101 level. We want sessions that make us stretch and grow, not sessions that slow-pitch to us. We're asking to have the bar raised.
With great respect for our times together and for everyone who believes in TRLP.
Bob

Dallas City Council ratifies green building codes for new construction
Dallas City Council ratifies green building codes for new construction
The Dallas City Council adopted a resolution for the implementation of the citywide green building program and an ordinance establishing the green building program on April 9, 2008.
The proposed ordinance incorporates the recommendations of the task force into the Dallas Development Code. The program will consist of two phases (summary of program below). The long term vision for the program is for Dallas to be carbon neutral by 2030 and for it to be the greenest city in the U.S.
If you are a builder, land developer, general contractor, remodeler, realtor, architect, designer, or any way connected to the construction industry, you will have to learn about and implement the City of Dallas’s new green building codes.
If you require more information on the City of Dallas’s new green building codes and how they affect you, or need education on green building practices, or if you need help in developing a green program, we are available for individual consultations or group seminars.
RC3D offers:
Consultancy in green building and sustainable design.
Educational seminars.
Energy modeling.
Document review for LEED compliance (or any other rating system).
LEED Project Management (or any other rating system), i.e. liaison with LEED for Homes Provider, coordination with verifiers/raters, filing of documents and submissions for certification, etc...
Meet with our consultants to find out how you can build green without incurring huge costs.
Go to our web site for more information and news on green building and sustainable design.
A summary of the Task Force Recommendations and Ordinance Requirements can be downloaded from Dallas City Hall
Summary of the City of Dallas's Citywide Green Building Program
Phase 1 becomes effective October 1, 2009, and includes requirements for energy efficiency, water conservation, cool roofs, and outdoor light restrictions for new residential projects and new proposed commercial projects affecting less than 50,000 square feet of floor area in a single 12 month period. Builders must use 15 percent less energy and 20 percent less water than current Dallas code standards mandate.
Proposed projects affecting 50,000 or more square feet of floor area, or more than 50 dwelling units, in a single 12 month period will have to achieve 85% LEED certified level compliance under any of the applicable LEED rating systems or equivalent (e.g. must achieve at least 22 LEED NC v2.2 points), although formal certification by the USGBC or an equivalent entity is not required and equivalent green building standards may be used.
Phase 2 becomes effective October 1, 2011. Phase 2 applies to all new proposed projects, residential and commercial. Proposed projects must be LEED certifiable or certifiable under an equivalent green building standard.
All new proposed residential projects must be LEED certifiable under either the LEED for homes standard, or meet the Green Built North Texas standard, or an equivalent minimum green building standard certification level as determined by the building official, although formal certification by the USGBC or an equivalent entity is not required.
Each proposed commercial project may apply for compliance under any of the following LEED rating system products: LEED NC (new construction), LEED for schools, LEED for retail, LEED for healthcare, LEED CS (core and shell), or LEED for homes.

CCAR goes GREEN
Well, I could not imaging the presentation going any better. I have uploaded the video of the presentation to YouTube.com. The video is 30 minutes in length so I had to divide the presentation into 3 files. The linkes are:
Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AdLmeoQ9Dv0
Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mACCXZoT-us
Part 3: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlV4qh7IkAc
I'll be sending out an email to each of the attendees thanking them and offering to help them with recycling and perhaps doing the presenation for their local office.
THANK YOU to everyone who helped out!
