US Green Building Council Exam LEED AP ND Topic 5 Question 2 Discussion

Actual exam question for US Green Building Council's LEED AP ND exam
Question #: 2
Topic #: 5
[All LEED AP ND Questions]

For a LEED for Neighborhood Development project that has yet to earn all land use entitlements, which of the following should the project team pursue to assist with local approvals?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

When a LEED for Neighborhood Development project has not yet secured all land use entitlements, one effective strategy to assist with local approvals is to pursue a 'LEED for Neighborhood Development: Plan' designation. As part of this process, the project team can seek a Letter of Support from the USGBC or another relevant authority. This letter serves as a formal endorsement of the project's sustainability goals and alignment with LEED ND principles, which can be persuasive in negotiations with local authorities and stakeholders. It demonstrates a commitment to sustainable development, which can help to secure the necessary approvals.

I'm not sure about that. Maybe we should also consider option B, getting an endorsement from the local USGBC chapter.

Haha, a site visit by a GBCI rep? That's like bringing your parents to a job interview. No way that's the right answer. C is definitely the way to go.

Hmm, I'm torn between B and C. An endorsement from the local USGBC chapter could carry a lot of weight, but that LEED for ND Plan letter is probably the safest bet. Decisions, decisions...

I'm going with C as well. A LEED Plaque (D) isn't going to do much for local approvals before the project is even certified. Gotta start with that community buy-in.

Agreed, community buy-in is key. A LEED Plaque won't help until after certification.

C) LEED for Neighborhood Development: Plan. Letter of Support seems like the obvious choice here. Local approval is all about community engagement, and that letter could really help with that.

LEED Plaque is important, but it's not directly related to assisting with local approvals.
