For a few years now, a group of people have been working to get a net-zero community up and running in Ann Arbor. That hasn’t always been easy. The proposed development challenges a lot of government’s rules and regulations about buildings and neighborhoods. It’s called Veridian at County Farm. The project is the brainchild of Matthew Grocoff, founder of the green building company THRIVE collaborative. He discussed the vision behind Veridian at County Farm, and how the development would eliminate greenhouse gas emissions and conserve resources like water.
