FAQs about SSc4.4 :

If a non-residential project wants to use Option 4, which references the  ITE Parking Generation Study, where does one upload and submit required documentation? There is no Option 4 choice in the credit form.

How do you designate preferred parking if the parking facility is not under the owner's control?

How does one apply minimum zoning requirements to a project when it is part of a larger complex or campus?

Are there standards regarding how to document the spaces that will be dedicated as reserved?

How does a carpool/vanpool relate to a shared car service/company when it comes to the preferred parking requirements of this credit?

Should I consider motorbikes and parking spaces for them under this credit? What about fleet vehicles?

How does one account for off-site parking. Should the LEED boundary encompass this parking? Or alternatively may the project pursue the "no new parking" option?

If a project does not provide parking onsite but provides a shuttle service to new parking offsite, is that considered “no new parking” since the new parking is not onsite?

Does rebuilding an existing parking area with fewer spaces mean “no new parking”?

NC-2009 SSc4.4:Alternative Transportation—Parking Capacity

No parking place

Hi, I'm starting to work on the certification of a building in a small town in Oaxaca,Mexico.It consists of bedrooms for children so they can stay and attend classes, it is like a Hostel /dormitory. In the town most people move on foot , so there is no need to use the car. But the client needs to have a parking place for an ambulance and one for a bus in case it is needed. Could I apply for "No New Parking" as an option?

Hi Alejandro, this isn't clear cut so I would submit a narrative with your documentation to explain the situation, that the spaces are required, and see what the reviewers say. It might help your case if you can clearly show those spaces are designated for ambulance and bus only and not for use by project occupants, though I don't think it's a guaranteed point.
