I am curious about the separate function AND ownership requirement for an addition to a non-certified building. We have several projects where we are adding to an existing building, and often the new addition is a wing or similar with the same function as the existing. Does this mean we essentially cannot submit it for certification? I have not had any experience where we're adding a new addition to a building and the addition has a different owner. We are doing as much as we can to differentiate the certified wing from the non-certified, but the "ownership" distinction is difficult for me to fathom. Any thoughts? Or is CIR always warranted?

Jonathan, I hope this helps, belatedly. Given the far-reaching consequences of MPR2 on a project, I thinking that contacting GBCI to clear up any questions is often warranted, although a CIR may not be necessary.I'd love to take a stab at your question if you want to post about a specific instance. Or if you have had some insight since posting, please let us know!
