Inquiry

For part SS 1.2 (b), how should the buildable lot area be estimated when the home is part of a larger agricultural lot, with crops, etc.?

Ruling

Generally, residential lots are defined by some deed, land restrictions or other clear designation. In cases where the home is part of a larger agricultural lot, the verification team and project team should work together to define the lot in a way that is fair and reasonable. Any determination of the lot line should be applied equally to all credits in the Rating System.
