			Evidence of the paving permeability for any contributing open-grid pavement (e.g., product information from the manufacturer).
			Shadow plan for any planting or vegetated structures contributing shade over pavement areas in the calculation.
			Evidence of the ten-year canopy width for any planting contributing shade over pavements areas in the calculation (e.g., plant growth guide).
			The project’s roof plan(s) identifying all vegetated roof area, helipads, amenity areas, mechanical equipment, solar energy panels, skylights, other roof appurtenances, roofing materials with area measurements, and roof slope(s)
			Evidence of each roofing materials’ SRI value (e.g., default values or product information from the manufacturer).
			The plant species list for the vegetated roof.
	Option 2. Parking Under Cover	All	Evidence of the location of all existing and new off-street parking spaces that are subsidized, leased, or owned by the project, including parking that is outside the project boundary but is used by the project (e.g., contract documents).
	Option 2. Parking Under Cover	All	Evidence that any roof used to shade or cover parking meets the required criteria (e.g., roofing material product information from the manufacturer highlighting SRI, photographs or contract documents depicting the vegetated roof or energy generation systems).
	Option 3. Tree Equity	All	Areas of existing condition and design/post-construction tree canopy cover on-site.
	Option 3. Tree Equity	All	Evidence of increase in tree canopy cover (e.g., pre- design site survey and contract landscape plan).
	Option 3. Tree Equity	Projects in the U.S.	Evidence of the project’s Tree Equity Score and ranking (e.g., a screenshot).
	Option 3. Tree Equity	International Projects	Analysis of the project’s local community composition, identifying any neighboring underserved and/or disadvantaged populations with lower tree canopy presence (e.g., census data from_IPp2: Human Impact_ Assessment).
	Option 3. Tree Equity	International Projects	Evidence of the tree canopy presence in the surrounding community (e.g., a local tree census or a surrounding community site assessment), and identification of any neighboring underserved and/or disadvantaged populations with lower tree canopy presence.
