Forming the Green Building Team The success of King Street Center encouraged the Department of Natural Resources and Parks and the Department of Construction and Facility Management staff to create a broader County-wide group and formalize what is now known as the Green Building Team.   The Green Building Team has: Brought together capital project managers who were either interested in 'greening' their practices, or who were already implementing green building practices; Facilitated information-sharing among project staff and created stronger interest and commitment to green building; Generated ideas from project managers about how to make green building standard practice on county projects; Introduced the LEEDTM (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Rating System as a possible green building standard King County might adopt.
