Question #: 3
Topic #: 1
Which of the following would contribute to the Location and Transportation Credit, Surrounding Density and Diverse Uses, Option 2. Diverse Uses?
A.
An existing bus stop located 1/4 mi. (0.40 km) away from the LEED project's main entrance
B.
An existing restaurant that is 3/4 mi. (1.20 km) away from the LEED project's main entrance
C.
An existing fast-food restaurant with no drive-in service located 1/8 mi. (0.20 km) away from the LEED project's main entrance
D.
A planned school that will be occupied within 18 months of the date of the LEED project's initial certificate of occupancy and is located 1/4 mi. (0.40 km) away from the LEED project's main entrance
Option 2 of the Location and Transportation Credit, Surrounding Density and Diverse Uses, requires that the project’s main entrance be within a 1/2-mile walking distance of at least seven operational and publicly accessible uses. The existing fast-food restaurant without a drive-in service, being only 1/8 mi. away, meets the criteria for proximity and is considered a diverse use under this credit1.
