EBOM-2009 IEQc2.4:Daylight and Views

Can I use daylight or views to satisfy multiple buildings?

I am working on an EB:O&M 2008 multiple buildings project on a campus that includes 10 buildings within the LEED boundary. To achieve the daylight and views credit, the reference guide states "Achieve a 2% daylight factor in 50% of all spaces occupied for critical visual tasks OR Achieve direct line of sight to vision glazing for building occupants in 45% of regularly occupied spaces." Does this mean each building on campus can satisfy this credit using either daylight compliance OR views compliance, I do not need to use just one method? Thanks!

I do not have direct experience with this, but after reading this document, https://www.usgbc.org/ShowFile.aspx?DocumentID=7987 it is my understanding that each building must be done separately and therefore each building gets the choice of either daylight or views.
