LEED registration and certification fees
GBCi has scheduled an increase in its LEED registration and certification fees
I just saw the announcement that the Green Building Certification Institute (GBCi) has scheduled an increase in its LEED registration and certification fees for January 10, 2010. Some fees (like the one for registration) will double!
What do you think about this? Will this change your project's calculus on the value of LEED certification, in the current economy? Seems to me that GBCI has been instituting a more rigorous certification process, and that's got to cost something, but it seems like the timing here is unfortunate.
