1.Measurements were disappointing July 15 because shading structures are doing their job and blocking direct sunlight - a blessing in Southern Arizona. Should we wait until the nx. equinox to measure again? 2. How do you recommend we address temporary obstructions, Streetcars in work areas, shadowing inspection area? Should we return and take measurements of inspection area after car moves there from work area?

There is no specific method or time when it comes to measurements if you are just trying to document the credit. It's also hard to say when you should take measurements again without knowing more about the project. If the project is not that big, then i would take measurements at or around the equinox, in the morning, noon, and then afternoon. I would definitely ensure that any obstructions or things that will not be there once occupied are removed. Your measurements should be taken under conditions of regularly occupancy.
