" <br />Re: <br />Our Client: <br />Marian illeadows/Kittitas county Development Agreement Application #DV-.l9-0001 (the "Project"| <br />Kittitas Gounty Fire District #3 (the "District") <br />Dear Commissioners: <br />This letter is in response to Easton Ridge Land Company's ("ERL6;';1 Request for Hearing letter <br />dated May 28,2021, on the Marian Meadows Development Agreement, The District refutes <br />many of the assertions in the ERLC letter regarding the posture of the ongoing discussions on <br />mitigation payments. As a result, the District is compelled to correct facts in the record befora <br />the Board of Commissioners. ln the District's view, it appears that ERLC is simply trying to drive <br />its Project forward, after exchange of only a few letters, and without actually considering the <br />impacts the Project has on the District and fire and emergency response services to the broader <br />community. <br />The last communication proposing mitigation came from the District in a letter dated Ju;re 25, <br />2421 ,lo which ERLC has not responded. The District's June 25, 2021, offer of mitigation terms <br />included the following terms: <br />r ERLC pay Eight Hundred Seventy-Five Dollars ($875.00) per residential unit <br />(The definition of a unit is a single-family residential structure, garage or shop <br />with living quarters or home, a duplex is 2 units, and a triplex is 3 units). <br />ERLC pay Fifty Cents ($0.50) per square foot of commercial and industrial <br />occupied space. (The definition of an occupied space would include RV storage <br />units, recreational, campground or park buildings, and other structures inclusive <br />of storage spaces). <br />a <br />i For the purposes of this letter, the reference to ERLC refers lo the applicant or proponent al any stage <br />of the Project.
