Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

To meet the Minimum Program Requirements (MPR) for a LEED for Neighborhood Development (LEED ND) certification, a project must encompass a minimum area that includes at least one habitable building. The MPRs are designed to ensure that the project is of a scale that supports neighborhood-level sustainability strategies. A site with an area of 1,200 acres (465.62 hectares) containing five habitable buildings meets these requirements. The presence of multiple habitable buildings aligns with the intent of the LEED ND program to develop sustainable, vibrant neighborhoods.
