6 <br />A B C D E F <br />Commenter Name <br />Comment <br />Date Public Comment Excerpt / Summary <br /> Specific DA / <br />Condition # <br />Comment Topic <br />Area Applicant Response <br />37 <br />38 <br />39 <br />Doug & Karen McDonald Jan 20, 2026 <br />The Development Agreement includes enforceable agreements for infrastructure, environmental <br />mitigation, public access, and financial responsibility. <br />We are Suncadia homeowners who support responsible development. However, extending an <br />agreement while obligations remain unmet shifts risk away from the developer and onto residents <br />and the County. <br />I respectfully request that the County conduct a written compliance review and require resolution of <br />outstanding obligations prior to any extension decision. <br />DA Recitals D thru I; DA <br />Section 4.2 Timing of <br />Construction and <br />Completion. <br />No Specific Conditions <br />Stated <br />Compliance <br />Verification <br />The Applicant acknowledges the request for a compliance determination. Development Agreement obligations have been <br />implemented through phased approvals and County oversight. The extension does not waive enforceable requirements. <br />Susan Miller Jan 25, 2026 <br />I am not opposed to development, but I respectfully ask that the County review the existing <br />Development Agreement for applicability and compliance before approving any extension. Given the <br />age of the project, it is not clear from the public record which obligations have been completed, <br />which may have expired, and which may remain outstanding. <br />The developer controlled association has allowed irrigation and landscaping around <br />homesites that has been designated open space and is supposed to remain natural. <br />With the rate of water usage in the development now, it is difficult to see how the resort can support <br />the additional proposed development over the next 20 years. As proven by this year’s drought, water <br />is going to be scarce in the years to come. <br />At the HOA board meeting this week, the developer said that they had seen the <br />comments sent to the county from the owners and would be responding to those <br />questions about their compliance with the development agreement. Those responses should have <br />been submitted with their original filing and able to be reviewed by the public, not at the 11th hour. <br />This is exactly what we are requesting. A thoughtful, deliberate consideration of this development <br />agreement prior to an unusual and very lengthy extension. <br />DA Recitals D thru I; DA <br />Section 4.2 Timing of <br />Construction and <br />Completion. <br />No Specific Conditions <br />Stated <br />Compliance <br />Verification <br />The Applicant acknowledges the concern regarding documentation of compliance. Compliance with Development Agreement <br />obligations has been verified through County approvals over the life of the project. The proposed extension does not assume <br />incomplete obligations as satisfied or waive enforceable requirements. <br />The Applicant recognizes the risk of continued drought and is in the process of gathering better data on how to appropriately <br />respond. This may include resort-wide reassessment of irrigation practices. <br />Thomas Miller Jan 19, 2026 <br />I am not opposed to responsible development. My request is that the County review and verify <br />compliance with the existing Development Agreement before considering any extension. I am <br />opposed to the 15 year extension of the current Development Agreement without a thorough <br />examination of how well they have complied with the agreement. …. At a minimum, I respectfully ask <br />that the County require a written compliance review of the existing Development Agreement prior to <br />any consideration of an extension. While the County is not required to grant an extension, the <br />developer is required to comply with the agreement already in place. <br />DA Recitals D thru I; DA <br />Section 4.2 Timing of <br />Construction and <br />Completion. <br />No Specific Conditions <br />Stated <br />Compliance / <br />Extension Scope <br />The Applicant acknowledges the concern regarding the length of the extension and the request for independent verification of <br />compliance. The proposed extension maintains existing obligations and does not reduce County authority to enforce <br />applicable requirements.
