CS-2009 SSc5.2:Site Development—Maximize Open Space

SSc5.2 Case 3 including Pedestrian Hardscape

Im working on a project in the pre design phase with the following spaces. Total site area: 12000m² Vegetated open space: 800m² Pedestrian Hardscape: 3550m² The project fullfill the requirements of open space (36%) required 20%but not the requirement of vegetated space (18,5%) required 25%. My question is if i count only 2000m² of pedestrian hardscape the project will fullfill both requirements. Can i count only a partition of pedestrian hardscape or must i include the total area of pedestrian hardscape? Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Markus I had the same problem on my certification, but now I know (after design review) taht we must count TOTAL area of pedestrian hardscape and from this area count vegetated space. (see below similar question from my side)
