Has anyone run into design review comments stating that site takeoffs must be consistent. Our reviewer specifically notes that Table SSc8-1 reflects 170,600 sf of uncovered parking areas and drives and no additional hardscape but that Plf2: Project Summary details form indicates 67,715 sf of parking areas and 204,735 square feet of additional hardscape (272,450 sf total) within the LEED project boundry.
I don't believe these numbers have to match since Table SSc8-1 notes to "Include only surfaces that are provided with lighting. Unlit surfaces cannot be claimed for additional lighting power allowance." We have hardscape (paths, school outdoor play surfaces) that are only to be used during school hours and are unlit, hence the discrepancy.
