I wanted to know if anyone could tell me how many units you need in a half a mile radius. I am a little confused on how to calculate the 10 units per acre.

Heather, it depends on the neighborhood. One 10-unit apartment building would do it. Or another kind of development or neighborhood with 10 units within one acre. What's your situation?

Hi Tristan,
So, to clarify your reponse to Heather's post above, would it be sufficient to provide only the number of units per loft/apartment building if there are more than 10 loft/apartment buildings located within the 1/2 mile radius?....Rather than calculating the 10 units per acre for each building...?
-Thanks in advance

Gail,
On the Credit Form, it does not ask you to provide the density/acre anymore - the actual number as in v2.0. It does ask for a map link or for the project team to upload their own map. Here, as long as you highlight the building/buildings within 1/2 mile of your site that meet the density requirement, you'll be fine, i.e. the 10+ unit apt building. What you could also do, is check your local zoning map and definitions and use this as a reference when creating your documentation.
