CS-2009 SSc4.3: Alternative Transportation—Low-Emitting and Fuel-Efficient Vehicles
On our project all the parking is underground. Rather than placing all preferred spots on one floor we would like to stack them over two floors close to the parking elevator. Does anyone have any experience with this approach.
Thanks!

Do all hybrid vehicles automatically qualify for this credit?
How should the signage read for preferred parking spaces?
For electric vehicle charging stations, how are the parameters established for fueling capacity?
I am working on a project with no parking spaces allocated. Can I earn this credit?

Ellen discussed this on the NC forum for this credit.
There is an interpretation - not that new but recently enforced - that has come to my attention on the Core & Shell page that I wanted to share over here on NC. According to interpretation #10202, it is no longer acceptable to split up preferred parking spaces among levels of a parking garage - even if they are closest to the vertical circulation. Now, all preferred parking must be on the closest level to the building entrance unless it can show that the walking distance is greater than the driving distance to these spaces.
