Air handling unit, Leed certification

Good afternoon,

I am modeling the baseline building hvac system for a Leed certification. There is a hvac system No.8 which serves two different zones on the same plane (a single system is required), providing primary air and cooling the environments. In the proposed building, an area has a fancoil while the other is directly connected to the AHU. Moving to the baseline, if both zones require cooling but only one requires air exchange, the second zone will receive an unnecessary air replacement, contradicting G3.1.2.5.

How can I fix the problem? Do I have to create more AHU?
