Green Roofs

San Diego Union Article
March 8, 2007

Jim Mumford, owner of Good Earth Plants  undertook planting the first commercial green roof in San Diego in the Spring of 2007 without a permit.

Mr. Mumford has hired Robert Thiele, Architect to now get a building permit in the Spring of 2008 after a Code Enforcement Citation.

There were no building codes for green roofs in California at the time. We will pursue an Alternate Means and Methods Process.
