Tim Hoppenrath - Impark Learning how we can do our part to help the environment on a micro level…one garage at a time. Shared a bonding experience with Property Management, Engineers, Janitorial, and The Green Parking Council. IPI Award Ceremony in Las Vegas was a memorable reward for the hard work and time we all put into it. Impark can promote that we are one of the Pioneers of Green Garage Certification and we are at the forefront of this new revolution in sustainability. This may help our company win bid deals and help with our public relations efforts. The tenants in the building appreciate our efforts in “Going Green” and enjoy the use of the Juice Bar/Amenity Bay. Brookfield Properties, property owner and our client, can also promote the “Green Garage Certification” in its marketing efforts to lease space in the building. 72 www.greenparkingcouncil.org [email protected]
