Case 1, Option 2. I must be reading/interpreting this wrong. Provide parking for less than 3% of the FTE occupants?
So, if I have 100 FTE, I can only have 3 parking spaces?
And then 3% of those 3 spaces (or one space) would have to be reserved for carpools?
That makes such little sense that I am almost embarrassed to post this. I must be missing something.

Robert,Yes, you're reading correctly. If a project cannot accomodate those requirements, I would suggest going with Option 1.

Robert and Emily,
I understand the 3% for car/van pool vehicles applies to the total parking capacity - i.e. all available parking spaces onsite.
For example, should a shopping centre have 100 employes (i.e. FTE=100) and has a 500 parking space capacity, one has to provide maximum 3 parking spaces for the employes and 15 parking spaces dedicated to car/van pool vehicles to qualify for this credit under Case 1 - option 2 scenario.
Is that right?
