June 10 Program Topic:
CoHousing Houston – Heading Towards Community and Trying to be Green
What does a multi-family development look like where you know all your neighbors and do things together? The speaker for our June 10 program will be Steve Stelzer, the Program Director at the City of Houston Green Building Resource Center. Steve is a member of CoHousing Houston and will show us the strategies for developing the first CoHousing development in Texas, and what the green values of the community are.

What is cohousing?
"Imagine...
A neighborhood that integrates green design with a social, supportive community life. Neighbors know one another. They have worked with an architect to design their dream environment and to tread lightly on the earth.

Cohousing communities consist of private, fully-equipped dwellings and extensive common amenities including a common house and recreation areas. The common house is the very heart of a cohousing community. It provides a place for community activities such as common dinners, and numerous other organized formal and informal activities.
Residents are involved early in the design and development phases so that the community reflects their priorities. Residents live in a close-knit neighborhood that seeks a healthy blend of privacy and community."
