Dear Caleb & Sonya:
Thanks again for visiting with us about our project prior to the holiday weekend. Per your request, this
letter is written to provide you our thinking on phasing and timing of various on & off-site improvements
as we move forward with project approvals and the marketing and leasing of our project. Please
understand that we are committed to building a first class mixed use project that proudly serves the
community!
Phase I Improvements will include the following:
Right of way street frontage improvements along Chinden Road and Linder Road including the
required landscaping and sidewalk.
New full access with traffic signal on Chinden.
New partial access right in / right out on Chinden.
Three new full access improvements along Linder.
Frontage / backage road on-site improvements through the site from the north Linder access to
Chinden signalized access.
Roadway improvements as outlined in ITD Approval Letter dated February 24, 2017 (see
attached) and as will be further described in the future STARS agreement. As we discussed, we
are currently completing the field survey and concept plan for ITD review and discussion.
Utilities extended throughout the site per the Preliminary Plat documents (includes domestic
water, fire water service, sanitary sewer, and pressurized irrigation.)
Landscape buffer between residential and commercial including landscape berm and new
decorative fencing.
Building pad development and associated parking areas will occur as separate applications are
submitted by the various end users and developer but we believe includes Winco (Parcel 1),
PetSmart (Parcel 11), retail shops (Parcel 2 & portions of Parcel 3 depending leasing) and Pad
Parcels 4,5 & 6. Obviously, if the Major User shown on Parcel 10 decided to locate on our site,
they would be part of Phase I also but we will adjust the site plan to include other major
tenants if not as we move forward.
For your reference, we have also attached a site plan exhibit shaded to illustrate our Phase I
improvements as described above plus a plan that includes the second major anchor if they decided to
proceed on our site. After your review, please let us know if you have questions. We have worked hard
in good faith for several years now to make this project a reality and appreciate your and the city’s help
and support!
Best regards,
