Hi Prakash, the LEED credit requires that you not exceed the local minimum, so whether the law sets a maximum or not should not matter. The credit is written to encourage projects to reduce parking below the local minimum (via a variance, or pooled parking, or other strategies) if the local minimum exceeds the number required for credit achievement.
