Hello,

My name is Heraldo and I am leading the LEED NC-Retail 2009, certification of a 5000 m2 supermarket that is inside of a 100.000 m2 shopping mall and has numerous stores, walkways, parking lots, and uses and nothing else than the supermarket is being certified LEED.

The leaser is constructing a new supermarket and the old building that was in that place was turned down, so just the store is being reconstructed, no roads, exterior lights, pavement, parking lots, just the supermarket.

The supermarket has control of the land where the supermarket will be, but not the roads, or the walkways around the supermarket, or the exterior light.

So we are thinking in declaring a boundary that uses the supermarket, 80 parking spaces (the law requieres them, although those are not being contructed, they are already built), the walking roads that surrounds the supermaket and a plaza that is behind it because we want to water the green area of it with the rain falling in the roofs.

1) Would that be appropriate to declare the boundary like that?

In the case of SSc4 Alternative Transportation: We are pursuing the Option 2 (1 point ), Option 4 (3 points) .

2) In Option 2 Bicycles: Do I have to take the supermarket as a multicomplex site? I am only going to have bicycles for the supermarket not the complete shopping center.

3) In Option 4 Parking Space: There is no new parking space being constructed and the store share the use of the parking lots with other stores, so can i declare it as no new parking lot is being constructed?

4) SSc6.1: There is a little park behind the supermarket that we want to water with the little rain that falls. Would I be able to do this to comply with credit SSc6.1, using 50% of the water that falls in the roof of the supermarket?

5) SSc8: We don´t have control over the lights of the parking lot, as they are not part of the lease. Can i Still Apply to this credit by doing the multi tenant complex approach?

Thanks!
