Dear all,
I am seeking 2 points for this credit for a retail mall by placing all the parking spaces under cover.
My questions are:
1) There are 2 loading bays on different levels which are not under cover. A truck will park temporarily in the loading bays to transport the goods to the shops/restaurants of the mall (for like 5 minutes). We can assume that during certain durations of the day, at least 1 truck will be in the loading bay loading/unloading goods. Being not under cover, is there a risk that the USGBC considers less than 100% of my parking spaces to be undercover, and thus grant me only 1 point?
2) Around 8 racks will be provided for parking motorcycles. Will these spaces need to be under cover also, similar to car parking spaces?
Many thanks!

George, I don't think the loading dock would be considered "parking." I do think that the motorcycle area would be considered parking, though.
