But regardless of the issue—whether it be energy efficiency, carried interest or mandated sustainability thresholds—one overarching goal guides the group’s efforts: to increase the freedom and capability of its 17,000 members in 93 local associations to chart their own course for success.</p> <p xmlns:i=\"incisive-repository\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">A prime case is the Obama Administration’s Better Buildings Initiative, launched early last year in part to make commercial properties 20% more efficient by 2020. “It makes sense and it dovetails nicely with the BOMA Seven-Point Challenge,” comments president and COO Henry Chamberlain, explaining that the goal of the challenge actually exceeds the Obama plan both in terms of threshold percentage and timeframe, seeking a 30% reduction by the end of this year.</p> <p xmlns:i=\"incisive-repository\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">But the two programs are not totally aligned, and as chairman Boyd R. Zoccola explains, a major sticking point comes in the incentives the government program sets out. “We’d like to see more robust and reasonable incentives,” he says, holding up the Empire State Building’s recent $13-million energy retrofit as a prime example. Zoccola, who is also EVP at the Indianapolis-based Hokanson Cos., says that while the retrofit “hit the ball out of the park,” and cut consumption by over 40%, the upgrades didn’t qualify for a single federal tax incentive. “The bar is simply set too high.”</p> <p xmlns:i=\"incisive-repository\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">Joseph W. Markling, who takes over when Zoccola’s term ends during the BOMA Every Building Conference & Expo in Seattle this June (see sidebar, page 68), says the impact of too-high thresholds will be lack of interest. Even arbitrary standards sound good to the untrained ear, he says, “and the incentives sound like a lot of money. But we need incentives that are meaningful and substantial. Otherwise, if people know they can’t get to 40%, they simply won’t try. Incentives have to work for both sides. Every building is different.”</p> <p xmlns:i=\"incisive-repository\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\">“Depending on your portfolio, your tenant mix and the type and age of the buildings, there can be a lot of solutions to produce a high-performance product,” agrees Chamberlain. “There are a lot of ways to get that done—Energy Star, LEED, the BOMA 360 program and all sorts of management practices you can leverage up. But to make any one of them a generic bar for the industry to clear just doesn’t make sense.”</p> <p xmlns:i=\"incisive-repository\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\"> </p> <p xmlns:i=\"incisive-repository\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\"><strong><em>...For the rest of the story, go to the <a href=\"http://www.reforum-digital.com/reforum/201205#pg63\" target=\"_blank\">May 2012 issue of Real Estate Forum</a>.</em></strong></p> <p xmlns:i=\"incisive-repository\" xmlns=\"http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml\"> </p>"],"slides":[],"video":null},"youmightlike":null,"readnext":{"contents":[{"uri":"/2025/07/10/florida-ends-tax-on-commercial-rent-bringing-relief-to-tenants/","title":"Florida Ends Tax on Commercial Rent, Bringing Relief to Tenants","byline":"Anthony Russo","summary":"The removal of the tax will increase the state's competitive advantage and lure more folks to Florida.
