I am currently working on a Multiple Building Application for LEED and we have a stand alone restroom building that serves the playfield. I am registering for three project buildings under a Master Site project. I was wondering if the restroom building can be can counted as part of the closest building nearby. The restroom building is only 700 sq. ft. and would like to include the building as an accessory to the admin building. Any thoughts?

Jason, this is really a question about MPR3—please read the guidance there and post to that forum. Thanks, and sorry for the slow reply.

I had to research a similar situation. Here is the relevant MPR guidance. Note that this changed a bit between the original guidance (2010) and Rev2 (09/01/2011)
from MPR Guidance Rev2; p26
"If there is a non-LEED-certifiable building within the LEED project boundary, the project team can include the non-certifying building within the project boundary in ALL relevant submittals that are allowed and appropriate for each individual credit and prerequisite, essentially treating the non-certifying building as an extension of the certifying building."
