In a Jurisdiction where code is surpassing ASHRAE 90.1-2010 LEED buildings are required (by code) to meet the more stringent requirements but measure their energy score based improvement from ASHRAE 90.1-2010 is that correct ? or would the baseline be code requirement ? (There used to be a clause establishing the latter in LEED v2 but in V4 it is not there)

You are correct. Projects in states with more stringent codes start out ahead of states with less stringent codes.
