In our project (LZ3) we have a separate pedestrian route accessing the site. The local government requires the route to be sufficiently illuminated, which means that the illuminance value will exced 0.01 footcandles 15 feet beyond the the site (even though with small margin).

Is there any way for us to earn this credit? It seems counterproductive that on one hand LEED is trying to promote alternative transport, but on the other hand we are being punished for illuminating the access routes.
