DA Recitals D thru I; DA Section 4.2 Timing of Construction and Completion. No Specific Conditions Stated Compliance Verification The Applicant acknowledges the request for confirmation of compliance with the existing Development Agreement. Since approval of the original agreement, required obligations have been addressed through phased development approvals, inspections, and County acceptance of improvements. The proposed extension does not waive existing obligations but preserves the County’s ability to enforce applicable requirements. The Applicant will continue to work with the County to ensure compliance with all on-going conditions through plat approvals and other time stamped conditions required under the Development Agreement. James Jenkins Jan 19, 2026 I am not opposed to development. My request is simply that the County review and verify compliance with the existing Development Agreement before considering any extension.

Cindy Jobs Jan 20, 2026 Granting an extension without first establishing a clear, written record of compliance risks allows unresolved obligations to be assumed complete or superseded.

No Specific Conditions Stated Compliance Verification The Applicant acknowledges the concern regarding documentation of compliance. Compliance with Development Agreement obligations has been verified through County approvals over the life of the project. The proposed extension does not assume incomplete obligations as satisfied.

The Development Agreement has been administered through ongoing County oversight, and obligations have been addressed through applicable land use applications and approvals.

Randall & Anne Kim Jan 19, 2026 Granting an extension before resolving unmet obligations would undermine the purpose of the agreement and weaken accountability. I respectfully ask the County to require a comprehensive compliance review of the current Development Agreement prior to any extension decision. Such a review should document compliance status and identify any remaining obligations. DA Recitals D thru I; DA Section 4.2 Timing of Construction and Completion.

Debbie Landrie Jan 19, 2026 The Development Agreement includes important commitments related to infrastructure, public access, environmental mitigation, and performance standards. Before additional time or entitlements are granted, the County should verify that these commitments have been met.

However, extending an agreement while obligations remain unmet shifts risk away from the developer and onto residents and the County. For example; 1. Shifting sewer responsibilities through the sale of water and sewers utility. As a result dollars that were collected as part of the purchase of lots were not carried forward to the new utility. 2. Why is there a restriction on mailboxes. Every lot should come with a mailbox. 3. Why did the developer not approve cement board for siding years ago to protect the community. I respectfully request that the County conduct a written compliance review and require resolution of outstanding obligations prior to any extension decision. A-2 (land use), B-18 (water supply), B-20 (water rights), DA Recitals D thru I; DA Section 4.2 Timing of Construction and Completion. No Specific Conditions Stated Utilities / Community Standards The Applicant acknowledges the specific concerns raised. Utility responsibilities, design standards, and community requirements have been addressed through separate regulatory processes, HOA governance documents, and County approvals, as applicable. These matters are not altered by the proposed extension. 1. This comment is not related to the Development Agreement. Suncadia sold the water and sewer utility companies to a 3rd party private utility in 2019. Rates are set by the private utility company and the Washington State Utilities and Transportation Commission approves water rates. Recently, Suncadia worked with the utility to establish a connection fee for new lots to ensure that existing homeowners do not carry the cost of capital expansion of new lots. 2. This comment is not related to the Development Agreement. Only a small number of homeowners in the community are full time residents. Because of the focus on vacation homes and short term rentals, mail boxes for every lot was not contemplated. 3. This comment is not related to the Development Agreement. Cement board siding is allowed within the Design Guidelines for Suncadia.
