There is an omission in requirements for this credit in NC 2009 as compared with what is stated in the non-local-zoning-requirement option in NC v2.2. Nowhere does v2009 provide the Portland code/Transportation Engineers Guideline option when there is no local zoning requirement, as is always the case when working on military bases. The GBCI basically chooses to ignore this and require the team wishing to LEED-certify the project to submit a CIR. Any experience or input on this? Let's hope they own up to this oversight and issue an applicable errata.

We’ve not had experience with this yet...
I think you have the right idea about submitting a CIR. Hopefully the CIR will then get the ball rolling for an errata. Let us know how it goes.

In the past I have had success in using the Form 1391, which is required for congressional approval of the project, as a way to establish "zoning requirements" since the military does not generally follow local zoning. The 1391 should show the parking allocation for the project, which cannot be exceeded. The always seems to work for me.
