Hello I am looking for guidance or experience in a phased construction on a Master Site. I have a Master Site in southern California has three Core & Shell projects on it. Lets call them Master Site 1 and Projects A, B & C. We are looking to include a building (Project D) that may be coming soon on the heals of this three Project construction on the master site but Proj. D could be delayed, this is unknown. We would like to include the site that will be around Project D. The site line drawn would be contiguous and is part of a science lab campus. Our concern is that GBCI review teams would create comments regarding the unknown space (Project D) if not constructed / completed with our other projects. It is just Cores & Shell so we should be able to supply simple footprint and site drawings but not a complete set of actual drawings for the project to be. Another big concern is; Will we be able to complete Certification for Projects A, B and C?? Master Site Prerequisites & Credits will be documentable for A,B,C, & D. all credits and Prerequisites will be documentable for A, B and C.

Hello Lou,
Provide clear description about space where Project D will be constructed. Provide building footprint and site drawings or whatever available for the project D.
Yes, you will be able to complete Certification for Project A,B and C. Master Site Prerequisites & Credits can be documented for A,B,C, & D. And remaining project credits/prerequisites for individual project should be documented.
I think best way to avoid creating comments from GBCI review team is: Write an inquiry/guidance note to GBCI explaining your special case like here. And attach the guidance/response email/notes from GBCI into the documentation which will save time, and GBCI review will be smooth.
Hope it helps! Thank you.
