NC-2009 SSc4.3: Alternative Transportation—Low-Emitting and Fuel-Efficient Vehicles
I am working on an existing building in a commercial core. The building has no parking lot, but there is leasable parking spots in the vicinity. Could the building owner offer a parking credit in the tenant lease agreement for alternative fuel vehicles? I am looking for ways to get alternate credit, if possible. Thanks.

Do all hybrid vehicles automatically qualify for this credit?
How should the signage read for preferred parking spaces?
For electric vehicle charging stations, how are the parameters established for fueling capacity?
I am working on a project with no parking spaces allocated. Can I earn this credit?

Historically, projects have been able to achieve this credit by providing at least a 20% discount to employees/visitors driving LEFEVs. I would think that offering a credit to offset at least 20% of the cost to park off site would provide the same type of incentive.

Thanks, we will be drafting up a Letter of Agreement for the developer to use. I will post our review results when we get them.
