Hi, I want to know in the case that the building owner will rent all building offices, and design plans have a projected plant design free (without Closings) but the internal regulations of tenants has no restrictions to tenants if they incorporate Closings opaque internal (eg drywall walls) which vary the external view and the entry of natural light. I wonder if for certification C & S only should be supported with the plans proposed project and is not responsible for such condition the future tenant inside his office.

No, in fact the opposite is true. To get the C&S views credit, the owner must have tenant restrictions in place that preserve occupant views.

Hi Jill I want to know if this restrictions what you talking about, must be in the form for this credits or should be in the TENANT GUIDELINES for credit SSc9. because I check the form for the final review and dont see any option to put or specified this conditions of design, I just see the option to put the plans and photographs in the form for the final review.

It should be in the tenant guidelines as a requirement in order to get this credit. Whether you include it as such in the tenant guidelines for credit SSc9 or as a separate tenant guideline if you're not going for credit SSc9, is up to you. Include the tenant guidelines in the file upload section (Upload IEQc8.1-2) even if you've already attached them to SSc9. It doesn't matter which option you choose when uploading a file like this as long as you alert the reviewer that these are included by checking the box next to "Special circumstances preclude..." A dialog box will open and you can enter text there.
