FAQs about SSc4.4 :

How does one account for off-site parking. Should the LEED boundary encompass this parking? Or alternatively may the project pursue the "no new parking" option?

If a project does not provide parking onsite but provides a shuttle service to new parking offsite, is that considered “no new parking” since the new parking is not onsite?

Does rebuilding an existing parking area with fewer spaces mean “no new parking”?

If a non-residential project wants to use Option 4, which references the  ITE Parking Generation Study, where does one upload and submit required documentation? There is no Option 4 choice in the credit form.

How do you designate preferred parking if the parking facility is not under the owner's control?

How does one apply minimum zoning requirements to a project when it is part of a larger complex or campus?

Are there standards regarding how to document the spaces that will be dedicated as reserved?

How does a carpool/vanpool relate to a shared car service/company when it comes to the preferred parking requirements of this credit?

Should I consider motorbikes and parking spaces for them under this credit? What about fleet vehicles?

there will be no new parking in our LEED boundary, but we'll be allocating a few spots in the neighboring parking lot for the use of our building. We are not eligible under "no new parking," i get that, but then how do i go about pursing another option? do i need to find out the the existing parking lot doesn't exceed the zoning requirements (option 1) even tho i am only using a couple spaces or pursue option 2 and use the our LEED buildings FTE to calculate number of spots? Thanks!

Hi Courtney - if it's existing and outside the LEED boundary (and being negotiated through a contract separate to the new construction works) you won't be impacting the load on the local transport infrastructure so I would think there are grounds to claim the 'no new parking' option?
