Trendwest may choose to impose additional design guidelines through appropriate Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions ("CC&Rs") and/or other methods chosen by Trendwest. Trendwest will establish a Design Review Committee ("DRC") through CC&Rs, which Committee shall be responsible for imposing, administering and enforcing all design guidelines in accordance with this Agreement, CC&Rs, and any other instruments utilized by Trendwest. The purpose of these Design Guidelines is to identify the design goals that the County and Trendwest have agreed upon regarding the development of MountainStar. The Design Guidelines are not intended to be binding in the sense of code or regulations, but rather to reflect an agreed upon set of goals between the County and Trendwest to guide the design and development of MountainStar. The County recognizes that market conditions and public "taste" in design will change over the Term of the Development Agreement for MountainStar build -out. It is agreed by the County and Trendwest that the ability to adapt to these changes is a crucial aspect of innovation and the success of MountainStar. The County and Trendwest intend that Trendwest be given latitude and flexibility in determining how best to achieve the Design Guidelines in connection with the development of MountainStar. Therefore, the Design Guidelines set forth in this Section are intended to express the intent of what the County and Trendwest expect these Design Guidelines, and other guidelines adopted by Trendwest or the DRC, to achieve, while allowing Trendwest to choose the ways in which that intent will be achieved and without any additional required design review of any kind. Guiding Design Principles The design of MountainStar will feature a Northwest mountain style that will be designed to blend with the natural environment while reflecting the region's rich mining and logging histories. Trendwest reserves the right to alter this theme as necessary to respond to market considerations. All the buildings will be designed to encourage integrated use of the Resort's many on-site recreational opportunities. The buildings will be varied in size and shape and feature sloped roofs, generous overhangs, covered porches and walkways, decks and other elements that provide architectural detail. Structures will generally utilize natural materials and colors, and liberal use of wood and stone, and heavy timber or log construction will be emphasized. Roof materials will include; simulated wood shakes, flat concrete or clay tiles, slate or faux slate, oxidized copper or steel, other non - reflective metals, asphalt composition. New materials which may enter the market will be evaluated on a case by case basis. Disallowed roofing materials include wood shakes or shingles and clay barrel. Walls will feature wood siding such as board and batten or shingles. Most structures will feature a combination of one- and two-story elements. These will likely include the condominiums, chalets, recreational homes, administrative offices, shops, golf facilities and maintenance facilities. Larger structures will likely include three- to six -story resort Suneadia Master Planned Resort Exhibit J— Development Standards 10 December 2, 2008
