Can a project that doesn't get points under SS Cre 2 include green roof surface that is accessible for everyone in calculations for SS Cre 5.1? Does the statement from the reference guide that says "projects earning SS Credit 2: Development Density and Community Connectivity may include vegetated roof surface in this calculation" include both roofs accessible and not accessible for people?

Adam, reading the logic of that statement from the credit language, it follows that green roof area may not be included in credit compliance here if you are not earning SSc2.Accessibility to people is not a factor under SSc5.1—see SSc5.2 for that.Make sense?

Yes, thanks. I just wanted to make sure it's like that. We are fighting for every poit.
But I think that then I cannot include green roof (even if it's accessible for people) under SSc5.2 either because the project doesn't get SSc2.
