For example, if you are attempting the stormwater creditsSSc6.1 or SSc6.2 in the current project and have chosen to recalculate them for compliance with SSc9, you will need to calculate the stormwater rate and quantity for pre-development conditions (same existing conditions as for credits SSc6.1 and SSc6.2), as well as the stormwater rate and quantity for post-development of the
As soon as the calculations for the current design are solidified, recalculate the four credits you decide upon within the master site plan (in addition to the calculations for the design you are currently submitting). Doing so while the calculation methods and
Determine which four of the seven applicable credits are best suited for your project. Your choices might change as credits are defined and the project progresses, but it is helpful to keep a certain set of credits in mind as you run calculations and develop the existing site plan and future master plan. You must earn these four credits in your current design and the future master plan. See each of these credit pages on LEEDuser for more details on the requirements and calculations.
Talk with the school board to determine if this credit is in line with its sustainability goals and plans for future buildings. The conversation should include estimates for population growth or decline, the possibility of funding for green building, responsible parties for implementation, and parent and community input. Also consider the impact of these sustainable design requirements on future programming and use of space.
Upload to LEED Online a signed agreement with each organization for which you are providing a dedicated-use space. The agreement should detail how each space will be shared. Also provide a site plan highlighting security gates, separate entry, and restrooms for shared spaces.
