Hi,
We are a little unsure of who needs to sign the letter (The design and construction team only, or also the owner?) and what constitutes distribution to the stakeholders. Our project is within an airport master plan so we are considering the airport as the community and the owners as the group that will be operating the LEED project facility for 30 years, so we would email the report to them.
Any thoughts?.

The owner is a part of the design and contruction team.
The credit language gives you a minimum list of stakeholders. At a minimum it should include all those entities that will utilize the facility (airlines, TSA, vendors, etc.) and the larger community would also include some sort of representative sample of the building's users or customers.

Wow, how on earth would we distribute it to all those people?

Send to leaders or heads of your stakeholders. Its their responsibility to dissiminate the information to their larger constituents.

It says you can distribute or make publically avaible. So you don't have to distribute it to "all those people". Do you know who the building tenants are going to be? The list clearly includes all owners, facility managers, tenants, and community members. It appears to me that only "commuity members" is subject to interpretation and I gave you my interpretation. The I am just going off the credit language. Given the newness of v4.1, if you want specific guidance I would suggest submitting a LEED Interpretation.
