Our project is a high school building with parking separated into different areas for visitors, staff, and students. We have allocated 5% preferred parking for each user group, however, many of the staff spaces are reserved for specific people (Principal, Teacher of the Year, etc.). Would it be allowable to locate these specific reserved staff spaces closer to the building entrance than the reserved staff spaces for Low-Emitting and Fuel-Efficient vehicles since they are integral to the function of the building and serve the operational needs of the end user? If this has been covered in a previous thread, I apologize. I have been unable to find anything on this issue that is specific to schools. I appreciate your feedback!

Hmm, how many spaces are involved? I am reluctant to say that this would be okay. Why shouldn't the school give a higher preference to people using LE vehicles? And I think it's hard to argue that these preferential spaces are integral to the operation of the building.If this is important to the project I would request clarification from GBCI.
