Notes:

This question asks about exemplary performance.

Exemplary performance under SS Credit 1, Path 12, Other Quantifiable Environmental Performance is awarded if 2 or more of the compliance paths have been met.

Since the original design had 50% underground parking, exemplary performance could earned by:

Having open grid paving for 50% of the parking lot area.

-OR-

Providing shade now or within 5 years; and/or uses light colored or high-albedo materials with a minimum SRI of 29; and/or has open-grid paving areas. These must individually or in some combination cover at least 30% of the site\'s nonroof impervious surfaces (hardscapes).
