Palmetto Bay Green Community

34 Town homes arranged in clusters of 3 or 4 units around four Cul De Sacs. The community surrounds a lake with a jogging path, separate play areas, and a party pavilion.

• Common areas are lit with solar light fixtures
• Paving is done with permeable pavers and other semi-porous surfaces
• Jogging path is constructed of recycled tires
• Units are joined end to end rather than side to side for maximum exterior exposure and additional balconies
• Exterior walls constructed of R-22 insulated concrete forms (ICF)
• Grey water system with underground water storage tanks for irrigation of entire community
• Photovoltaic arrays with battery storage and reversible metering satisfy most of the daily electrical needs and store excess electricity for emergency use
