We are working on a large multifamily housing project that is incorporating community gardens throughout a previously developed site and we would like to determine whether the gardens can considered and "ecologically appropriate" amenity that contributes towards habitat. Is there a precedent for either including gardens in the total area that is counted as "native/adaptive and ecologically appropriate" or excluding them from the denominator (total site area) of this calculation?
