FAQs about LTc7 :

My mixed-use building contains space types that aren’t listed in the Base Ratios table in the Reference Guide. How do I calculate the base ratio for my project?

I don’t have a copy of the Transportation Planning Handbook. How do I determine the base ratio for my project?

Can this credit be achieved if the project has no existing parking and is providing no new parking?

NC-v4 LTc7:Reduced parking footprint

Parking spaces which are leased to the adjacent building

Hi all,

I'm working on a hotel project in a suburban area. The owner plans to build more parking spaces that the minimum required by local code and to lease out the extra number of parking spaces to the adjacent office building. The number of spaces available for hotel staff and guests will be equal to local code minumum and will be over 40% reduction from LEED baseline. But in fact more parking spaces will be constructed within LEED project boundary and our project construction scope.

Do you think it is an acceptable strategy to achieve LTc7 point?

Hi Aleksandra, first you should define the project boundary and if those extra car park spaces are outside the boundary, it shouldn't have an impact on the compliance with the credit requirements. But you should be consistent and exclude these spaces from other credits.
