The Downtown Justice Center is a five-story facility in Phoenix, Arizona that houses five County Justice Courts and nine other County departments that interact with the justice system. The building was the first to be constructed under the County?s mandate to build all new facilities with a goal of LEED certification. The facility was built in 2006 and achieved LEED certification. Based on May 2011 data, the building?s annual utility cost per square foot is 24 percent below the County average.
The Downtown Justice Center uses T5 fluorescents and task lighting in addition to a central plant and economizers to reduce energy use. Waterless urinals, efficient fixtures, and xeriscape with native plants reduce water consumption. Since the building?s cooling towers have water meters, the County was able to save approximately $4,400 in sewer fees on their latest annual cycle by participating in the local sewer fee reduction program.
Future plans for the facility will incorporate upgrades such as induction lighting, occupancy sensors, low-flow moderators for faucets, and re-commissioning as part of an energy services contract.
