I have a site with 124 parking spaces. For Option 1 the math points to needing 6.2 spaces (.05 x 124). To earn the credit, will chagring stations for 6 spaces be enough, or will 7 stations be required?

it has been my experience that in this situation GBCI will require 7 stations.

In the v4 Reference Guide, in the "Further Explanation, Calculations" section, they round up each example, even if established rounding norms wouldn't indicate rounding up (e.g., they round 5.4 to 6 and 2.16 to 3). So I'm with Dave, the GBCI will require 7 in your case.
