NC-2009 SSc4.4:Alternative Transportation—Parking Capacity

Counting of on-site / off-site parking

We have a non-residential new construction campus project where the local authority has recommended 1028 spaces (no minimum or maximum). There are 425 new surface and garage spaces being constructed on-site. Staff and visitors for this campus campus will also be able to use 1500 garage and 238 surface spaces off-site. A couple of questions: The off-site parking is existing and we have not included it within our LEED boundary. Do we need to include these off-site spaces in our parking total? If off-site spaces must be counted, but the garage/lot will be shared with other users, can we include only a portion of the off-site spaces in our total?

I would recommned you review the LEED Minimum Program Requirements supplemental guidance doc (easy to find via Google). It goes through in some detail how to consider this kind of thing in terms of your LEED boundary.
