ND-v2009 SLLc1: Preferred locations

The paragraph under Table 3. should read: "The intersections per square mile of the site and its surrounding area are calculated according to Equation 3: 212 / [(.932-.342) + (.00781-.00156)] = 355 intersections / square mile. This project qualifies for 4 points under Option 2."
Replace Table 3. See 10/1/2013 ND Addenda Table.

Table 1,
Add a second column, "Intersections per square kilometer," with the following values:
≥ 78 and < 97
≥97 and < 116
≥116 and < 135
≥135 and < 154
≥ 154

Revise connectivity definition to:
“connectivity the number of publicly accessible intersections per square mile, including any combination of streets, dedicated alleys, transit rights-of-way, and nonmotorized rights-of-way. If one must both enter and exit an area through the same intersection, such an intersection and any intersections beyond that point are not counted; intersections leading only to culs-de-sac are also not counted. The calculation of square mileage excludes water bodies, parks larger than 1/2 acre, public facility campuses, airports, rail yards, slopes over 15%, and areas nonbuildable under codified law or the rating system. Street rights-of-way may not be excluded.”

Under the second bullet, delete "In addition"
Add "or a local equivalent program administered at the national level for projects outside the United States" behind "Difficult Development Area (DDA,)."

The paragraph under Step 1 should read "Map the area that is 1/2-mile from the project perimeter. Count the qualifying intersections within the 1/2-mile area. Count the qualifying intersections existing on the site, if they were not constructed or funded within the past ten years by the developer."
Delete Equation 2 entirely.
Delete the sentence after Equation 2: "Intersections of streets with nonmotorized rights-of-way may count for up to 20% of total intersections."

In the third line, remove the text "(up to 20% of total intersections)"

Revise connecitivity definition to the following: connectivity the number of publicly accessible intersections per square mile, including any combination of streets, dedicated alleys, transit rights-of-way, and nonmotorized rights-of-way. If one must both enter and exit an area through the same intersection, such an intersection and any intersections beyond that point are not counted; intersections leading only to culs-de-sac are also not counted. The calculation of square mileage excludes water bodies, parks larger than 1/2 acre, public facility campuses, airports, rail yards, slopes over 15%, and areas nonbuildable under codified law or the rating system. Street rights-of-way may not be excluded.
