Consider the four options for non-residential projects to earn this credit:
- Option 1: Do not exceed minimum zoning requirements for parking capacity and provide preferred parking for carpools and vanpools for 5% of the total parking spaces.
- Option 2: Projects that provide parking for less than 5% of the building FTE occupancy need to provide preferred parking spaces for carpools and vanpools for 5% of total parking spaces or provide discounted parking rates for carpools and vanpools.
- Option 3: Provide no new parking.
- Option 4: For projects that have no minimum local zoning requirements, provide 25% fewer parking spaces than the applicable standard listed in the 2003 Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) “Parking Generation” study. (This option was not included in the original edition of the LEED 2009 Reference Guide, but was added through the April 2010 addenda.)
