Does anyone know if this applies to new construction only or do renovated spaces need to be upgraded to meet this? My project is 17% new/83% renovation. Since there are no calculations, the sample form doesn't ask where the prescriptive requirements are applied. If that is the case, we could follow the prescriptive path on new construction, and ignore existing walls and roof that we are not touching. That would allow the project to get up to 5 points, correct?

It applies to the renovated space as well. Does not sound like your project would be eligible to use this option.
