LEED ND - INFILL SITE DEFINITION Compact Development and Connectivity are indicators that LEED ND (Neighborhood Development) addresses within their pre-requisites and credits. This rating system defines an Infill Site as a site that meets any of the following conditions: 1. When at least 75% of the site’s boundary borders parcels that individually are at least 50% previously developed and that in aggregate are at least 75% previously developed. 2. The site, in combinations with bordering parcels, forms an aggregate parcel whose boundary is 75% bounded by parcels that individually are at least 50% previously developed and that in aggregate are at least 75% previously developed. 3. At least 75% of the land area, exclusive of rights-of-way, within a ½-mile distance from the project boundary is previously developed. 4. The lands within a ½-mile distance from the project boundary have a preproject connectivity of at least 140 intersections per square mile. This map shows compliance with definition #3 above. 1/2-MILE RADIUS FROM PROJECT BOUNDARY PROJECT SITE (PREVIOUSLY DEVELOPED) PREVIOUSLY DEVELOPED LAND WITHIN 1/2 MILE RADIUS (853.36 Acres = 98.79%) UNDEVELOPED LAND WITHIN 1/2 MILE RADIUS (10.48 Acres = 1.21%) PARKS Legend n HM_Undvprc_hlfmi HM_PreDevParc_hlfmi

LEED ND - CONNECTIVITY REQUIREMENT Compact Development and Connectivity are indicators that LEED ND (Neighborhood Development) addresses within their pre-requisites and credits. This rating system requires at least a minimum project connectivity of 140 intersections per square mile. Nonmotorized intersections can be counted in this calculation but no more than 20% of the total number of intersections.

LEED ND - INTERSECTION DENSITY Compact Development and Connectivity are indicators that LEED ND (Neighborhood Development) addresses within their pre-requisites and credits. This rating system requires a minimum connectivity rating of 90 intersections per square mile (using only the net area) within a 1/4 mile radius from the project boundary.
