LEED Communities- non-contiguous land included

ND-v4 MPR2: Must use reasonable LEED boundaries
posted by Lidia Johansen on Mar 5, 2024, 6:21 pm

Eliot Allen LEED AP-ND, Principal Criterion Planners LEEDuser Expert 303 thumbs up March 5, 2024- 6:42 pm Lidia, you're correct there's no LEEDuser forum for Communities despite its official status.

ND doesn't allow non-contiguous land, except for intervening street rights-of-way. For Communities, you may want to check with USGBC staff.
