E <br />a <br />Kittftas Community Development Services <br />Anention: gamey Nyiing <br />411 N Ruby St, Suite 2EIIensburg, WA 98926 <br />Re: Suncadia Development Agreement Extension <br />I am a homeowner in Suncadia. 1 am submitting this public comment in response to Kitfitas County's <br />request for input regarding the proposed extension of the Suncadia Development Agreement. <br />am not apposed to responsible development. My request is that the County review and verify <br />compliance with the existing Development Agreement before considering any extension. <br />The current Agreement includes obljgabons related to infrastructure phasing, public amenities and <br />access, environmental mitigation, and other performance commitments that were part of the original <br />approvals. Given the ale and maturity of the project, it is not clear from the public record which of these <br />obligations have been completed, which may have expired by their own terms, and which, if any, remain <br />outstanding. <br />Granting an extension without first establishing a clear, written record of compliance asks allowing <br />unresolved obligations to be assumed complete or superseded. Once an extension is approved, it <br />becomes significantly harder to enforce earlier requirements, particularly those tied to timing or early <br />phases of development. <br />At a minimum, I respectfully ask that the County require a written compliance review of the existing <br />Development Agreement prior to any consideration of an extension. White the bounty is not required to <br />grant an extension, the developer is required to comply with the agreement already in place. <br />If the County effects to proceed with an extension process, ! ask that it be conditioned on independent <br />verification of compliance, no waiver or retroactive forgiveness of unmet obligations, and clear timelines <br />and repart�ng requirements for any remaining commitments. <br />Many Suncadia homeowners, including myself, value responsible development and a constructive <br />partnership with Kittitas County. Verifying the applicability and compliance of the existing Development <br />Agreement before granting additional time is an important step in maintaining transparency, <br />accountability, and public trust. <br />S <br />oor�,Y7 �OQ <br />2z <br />
