Our project is a gut rehab of existing attached townhomes with offstreet surface parking. There will be no new offstreet parking. The only non-residential building is a community center. Can we still earn this credit? Would it just be having carpool parking for the community center? And perhaps the secure bike storage? It sounds like existing parking is exempt from the other requirements. Thanks!

Tommy, is the community center a new or existing building?

Tommy, only projects with new buildings or new off-street surface parking can pursue this credit. The last paragraph on carpool/shared-use vehicle parking is inadvertently missing the word "new" in front of "non-res and mixed-use building," consistent with the credit's other requirements that stipulate new buildings.
