Inquiry
In January 2010 the California Title-24 changed. For EA 1.2, should the performance level (e.g. 15% better than Title-24) refer to the new 2008 Standards that took effect in January, or the old 2005 Standards that were in place when LEED for Homes was balloted?
Ruling
As of January, 2011, the Rating System for California has been changed so the requirement for EA 1 is to exceed Title-24 2008 by 15% or more. However, projects are allowed to submit for certification using whatever version of Title-24 was used for the permitting process.
