Hello

I dealing with a project where an adjacent park mostly made of turf grass is being installed beside the building going for certification. Both the building and the park are owned by the same entity, but are being produced through different budgets. If we include the park within the LEED boundary, there is no way we can meet the Outdoor Water Use prerequisite, plus, the parks team in not willing to reduce the turf area. If we exclude the park from LPSA, we will then meet the prerequisite. 

Are we required to include the park? Guidance on this would be much appreciated. 

Thank you for your time
