[All LEED AP ND Questions]

Which of the following sites meets the Minimum Program Requirements (MPR) for a project targeting LEED for Neighborhood Development certification?

Show Suggested Answer Hide 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.

I'm going with C) A silo with an area of 1 .200 acres (485 62 hectares) that contains one Habitable building. Come on, a silo? That's got to be a trick question!

Hmm, I'm not sure about that. I think D) A site with an area of 1.600 acres (647.50 hectares) that doesn't contain any habitable buildings might be the right answer. Isn't the purpose of LEED to promote sustainable development, not just habitable buildings?

But option C also meets the MPR with one habitable building in a silo, so that could be a valid choice too.

I disagree, I believe option B is the correct choice as it has five habitable buildings.
