Notes:

Reference: Sustainable Sites Credit, Development Density and Community Connectivity

The question asks how to qualify for the Development Density. Development Density is one of two options for Development Density and Community Connectivity.
Remember that even though the credit contains the names of both options, they are treated as seperately.

The question indicates the project will ‘...meet the density requirements for..’. You need to know when you that the terms ‘development density or density requirement’ it means Option 1 Development Density.

When you see ‘basic services’ or ‘average density of 10 units per acre net’ the question is asking about Option 2 Community Connectivity.

The requirements for Option 1 are ‘A building developed on a previously developed site. Select space in a building that is located in an established, walkable community with a minimum density of 60,000 sq. ft. per acre net (two-story downtown development)’.

Greenfield developments are not acceptable, so the project must be located on a previously developed site. This was given in the question.

Pedestrian access and proximity to basic services is required for Community Connectivity.
