Schools-2009 SSc10:Joint Use of Facilities

LEED For Schools 2007 discrepancy

This question concerns the LEED for Schools 2007 Rating system. In the reference guide, the Option 1 compliance path does not include Joint parking areas as one of the spaces that could contribute to compliance. However on the USGBC website, joint parking areas is listed as a space that could contribute to compliance for this credit under this rating system. Has anyone had any experience with this discrepancy before, or know whether USGBC would go by their reference guide or by their online version? I have looked through the errata for the reference guide and have not found anything on this item. Here is the website version: http://www.usgbc.org/node/1733686?return=/credits/schools---new-construction/v2007 Thanks.

Esmerelda, I don't have a Schools 2007 reference guide. I would go with the language posted on the USGBC website. It's possible it's their error—but that credit language is official. Save a PDF of that page in case it's really key to project for later reference.

Thank you Tristan, I will save a pdf of that webpage as you suggest. I can't figure out how to post a scan of the credit from the reference guide, but if there is a way and it would be helpful let me know and I will do that. Thanks again.
