FAQs about SSc4.3 :

Do all hybrid vehicles automatically qualify for this credit?

Can a project pursue this credit via a combination of Option 1 (preferred parking) and Option 2 (alternative fueling stations)?

How should the signage read for preferred parking spaces?

For electric vehicle charging stations, how are the parameters established for fueling capacity?

I am working on a project with no parking spaces allocated. Can I earn this credit?

Our project is outside the U.S., and the LEED-approved ACEEE Green Score and CARB ratings and classifications don't apply to many vehicles. Is there another approach that is accepted?

Should I consider motorbikes and parking spaces for them under this credit? What about fleet vehicles?

Discounted Parking Rate - How to implement?

I have a large mixed use retail/office project that is interested in using the discounted parking rate option to comply with this credit but is finding logistical issues. The parking garage will be fully automated - push a button for ticket on your way in, pay via machine on your way out. Has anyone implemented the discounted rate approach in this type of situation? How did you do it? Incredibly high tech or costly computer programs are likely not an option for this tightly budgeted project.

Hi Michelle, I have not come across this personally but have you searched CIR's related to discounted parking to see if there's any additional info already out there? Another option is to set up a call with GBCI to review acceptable approaches.

Thanks, Marilyn. Yes, an exhaustive search of the Interpretations database, LEEDUser, the web in general, etc. have yielded nothing. I'll work directly with GBCI and will post what I find out!

Hello Marilyn, any update on this ? We have a similar scenario and I am wondering how did you implement "Discounted Parking Rate" for a large automated garage ?
