The American Institute of Architects (AIA) Center for Communities by Design is pleased to release the 2009 Sustainable Design Assessment Team Program (SDAT) Request for Proposals. The RFP solicits applications for inclusion in the Sustainable Design Assessment Team (SDAT) 2009 program. The SDAT committee will conduct two rounds of application review through the remainder of 2008 to offer submitters the opportunity to receive an early decision by the review committee. The first round of review will be in September 2008, and committee members will evaluate all applications received to date. Applications received after the first round of review will be reviewed in December 2008. Any additional applications received after the second review period will be considered for the 2010 SDAT program. The final deadline to submit proposals for consideration in the 2009 SDAT program is November 14, 2008. The Center for Communities by Design will hold a teleconference for communities interested in learning more about the SDAT program and the application process on September 19th, 2008 at 3:00 pm Eastern.  Please contact esimmons@aia.org if you would like to join the call.
