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?

NC-2009 SSc4.4:Alternative Transportation—Parking Capacity

Parking spaces for trucks

My project is a distribution center that serves number of loading trucks every day. Obviously, the site plan includes parking spaces for them. However, the local zoning requirements define only the number of parking spaces for building staff, not for the truck drivers. Does it mean, that in order to get the credit we only need to meet the requirement for parking spaces for FTE and we can provide as many parking spaces for the trucks as we want?

I would most likely consider the truck spaces an operational space and not a vehicle parking space, per se, and not subject to hte FTE requirements.
