Narrative: The Marian Meadows project was implemented in 2003 after the purchase of this land from Plum Creek. Many elements were needed to be put in place for this application to become reality. In 2004, the applicant began working with Easton Water District in efforts to secure the needed water for the project. This culminated into a working Resolution #030792-2 (see attached) which included the annexation of land into the Easton Water District and an operating agreement for services. Subsequent to securing the needed water source, the applicant explored “ideas” of what the property would support. County Code at the time would have allowed for up to 443 residential units within the project. Due to the size and scope of possible impacts, the County required and commissioned (to Parametrix) an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIS) for alternate development ideas ranging from 443 residential units down to 33 residential units. This EIS was finalized in 2011 with the Final Environmental Impact Statement (FEIS) published. This study delineated impacts related to each alternative with varying density scenarios. The lingering economic recession during this time period delayed submittal of developmental planning into 2015. With water discussion underway and the FEIS conducted, applications were processed and submitted resulting in land use approvals with conditions that are referenced in this application. Approval of this Development was received in 2018 under Ordinance #2018-006 with conditions as discussed, analyzed and outline within this Development Agreement application. This application will result into a working agreement with the County delineating development standards, phasing, agreement and mitigations for schools, fire related issues, development timing, needed clarification of listed conditions within Ordinance 2018-006 and operations and implementation of the Silver Creek RV Resort complex. Question #10 - The proposed plat of Marian Meadows is a mixture of uses within a 445.42 acre setting. Uses include single family, attached multi-family, large parcel single family and uses allowed under CUP 17-0001. All uses fall within the condition and terms set further within Ordinance 18-006 and stipulated within the Hearing Examiners detail accounting.
