Approved modifications must result in the <br />project remaining in harmony with the intent of the Sustainable Building <br />Ordinance to the maximum extent practicable. Maximum extent <br />practicable means the highest level of efficacy that can be achieved <br />considering the effectiveness, engineering feasibility, commercial <br />availability, safety, and cost of the measures. Decisions on modification of <br />the Ordinance by the City may be appealed to the City Council. <br />ADOPTED BY the City Council of Saint Anthony Village, Minnesota this ____ day of _____, <br />2026.
