CI-v4 MPR1:Must be in a permanent location on existing land

Points for being in a LEED certified base building

Hi all - I seem to remember seeing something recently about LEED v4 (or v4.1) ID+C projects again being eligible for points for locating in a LEED certified base building (harkening back to the days when you got 5 points under LEED 2009).  And now I can't find it again so don't know if I actually saw it in print or if it was in one of my LEED-related dreams.  Has anyone else stumbled upon this, and if so, can you please direct me to it?  That extra point or two could be the difference in certification levels for two of my projects.  Thanks in advance!

Dee, I haven't looked into the details, but this page: https://www.usgbc.org/articles/preview-leed-v41-drafts says this: "Projects located in a LEED-certified building can now earn an additional point." Sounds promising!

Hi Dee, Locating the project in a LEED-certified building is now a path to achieve one point under the Integrative Process credit, so if you upgrade that credit to v4.1, you should be eligible for the additional point.
