A university housing project with 100 one-bedroom apartments has a baseline
parking capacity of 1 parking space/unit from the ITE handbook. The project will earn
1 point under LT Credit Surrounding Density and Diverse Uses but not earn LT Credit
Access to Quality Transit. The project includes off-street parking. How many
preferred parking spaces for carpools must the project include for LT Credit Reduced
Parking Footprint? - CORRECT ANSWER-3 spaces
A 40% reduction is required for projects that DO earn points under either LT Credit
Surrounding Density and Diverse Uses or LT Credit Access to Quality Transit.This
project has earned one of the credits, so a 40% reduction is required.
If any off-street parking spaces are provided, the project must include preferred
parking for carpools for 5% of the total parking capacity. The preferred parking is
calculated AFTER the reductions have been made. 100 spaces baseline from the
ITE handbook X 60% (40% reduction) = 60 total spaces60 spaces X 5% preferred
parking = 3 spaces
