I have a client planning a complete fit-out of one of their retail spaces. The project is located in a resort in Las Vegas, which is attached to a Casino that allows smoking. Smoking is prohibited in the shopping/ dining area of the resort where the project is located. Is the project eligible for LEED certification even though smoking is allowed in the Casino portion of the building? Could additional IAQ strategies be adopted such as self-closing doors, enhanced ventilation etc. to meet LEED tobacco smoke requirements?
I appreciate your assistance.
Thank you!

Hi Anna, that sounds reasonable to me but I highly recommend explaining your case to USGBC and getting their confirmation in writing, given that this is pretty strict prerequisite.
