Hi All,
I know there are numerous variations on this issue but I do feel compelled to open another...
Our project, located deep within a densely occupied major US city, has bus stops nearby but only for a single bus line. However, surrounding this site, starting at 0.28 mile, are numerous bus stops and routes (at least 7 bus routes) that are part of the robust and extensive public transportation system that includes rail and subway. Does anyone know of a LEED review that would acknowledge that the site is within a major, intensive and extensive large city transport system but misses the 1/4 mile 2-bus requirement by a few feet and perhaps accept that the intent of this credit is met? By the way, the single bus line nearby is a major, frequent and highly used route.
Thanks!

Jeff, I think you have a reasonable case but since it does not meet the LEED requirements you'll need to get GBCI approval, through a LEED Interpretation, or just direct communciation.
