Notes:

Reference: LEED 2009 for New Construction and Major Renovations Rating System

Preferred parking spaces are for particular users and are parking spaces that are closest to the main entrance of a project. They do not include handicapped parking. For LEED, other forms of preferred parking include discounted parking passes, designated covered spaces, and guaranteed passes in a lottery system.

Preferred parking is a strategy by LEED to reduce the pollution from automobiles. Preferred parking is reserved for carpools, vanpools, and occupants who drive low-emitting and fuel efficient vehicles. Each of these drivers help reduce automobile use and/or emissions.

LEED allows providing discounted parking passes to owners of low-emitting and fuel-efficient vehicles. The discounted passes may help to encourage the purchase of these vehicles that are better for the environment.
