SUNCADIA RESORT LLC
DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT EXTENSION
PROJECT NARRATIVE
Proiect Overview
RD ECEHE
SEP 2 9 2025 0
Kittitas County CDS
Suncadia Resort LLC ("Suncadia") respectfully submits this request to Kittitas County for an amendment
to the existing Amended and Restated Development Agreement by and between Kittitas County and
Suncadia LLC, dated December 2, 2008, adopted under Resolution No. 2009-37 and subsequently
amended by Resolution Nos. 2009-78, 2012-032, 2012-101, and 2021-100 (collectively, the
"Development Agreement").
The Suncadia Master Planned Resort was envisioned and approved as a long-term, phased development
that includes up to 4,650 accommodation units, a resort core, recreation facilities, commercial uses, and
substantial open space and conservation areas.
Request Summary
The current term of the Development Agreement is 30 years, expiring on October 9, 2030. The Suncadia
is seeking an extension of the term by an additional fifteen (15) years, through October 9, 2045, and to
amend the Development Agreement accordingly.
The scope of this request is limited to the extension of the term of the existing Development Agreement.
Please see proposed Second Amendment of Amended and Restated Development Agreement by and
between Kittitas County and Suncadia Resort LLC and proposed Resolution Adopting and Authorizing the
Chair's Signature, both of which are attached hereto as Exhibits D and E, respectively.
Justification for Extension
Of the 4,650 allowed units, Suncadia currently has approximately 1,700 units comprising a mix of single-
family homes, condominium/multi-family units and hotel accommodations that have either been
completed or are currently under construction.
Given past and current market conditions and development timelines, additional time is necessary to
support the continued and successful buildout of the project. This requested extension will help ensure
that Suncadia can deliver on the long-term vision previously approved by the County while continuing to
provide ongoing and substantial fiscal benefits to the County, together with all other public benefits that
are and will be derived therefrom.
SEPA Applicability
This application seeks only to extend the term of the existing Development Agreement with no changes
to permitted uses or development standards. As such, Suncadia understands that no new SEPA
Checklist is required. The Final Environmental Impact Statement, as amended ("FEIS") issued by the
County and subsequent environmental documentation remain in effect.
Page 1 of 2
Conclusion
The requested extension will support the continued, successful implementation of the Suncadia Master
Planned Resort in alignment with the original vision approved by Kittitas County. This extension is not
only critical to maintaining project momentum but also serves the best interest of both the public and
the County by promoting long-term economic development, and responsible land use planning.
We appreciate your consideration of this request.

MEMORANDUM
Date: December 15, 2025
To: Chad Bala, Director Kittitas County Community Development Services
From: Tucker Stevens and Mark Thorne, Suncadia Resort
RE: Suncadia Development Agreement Extension Request – Clarification on Emergency Egress
To support the Suncadia Development Agreement extension request, this memo provides clarification regarding
emergency egress from and through Suncadia Resort as requested by Kittitas County. Specifically, this memo describes a
commitment by Suncadia to provide for emergency egress routes from the surrounding community in upper Kittitas
County through the resort during an emergency evacuation.
Two exhibits are included as part of this memo. The first shows the official Suncadia and Tumble Creek evacuation
routes that we provide to our residents (“MPR Evacuation Routes”). This directs traffic to Suncadia’s two access points at
Swiftwater Drive / Highway 903 and Suncadia Trail / Bullfrog Road, both of which can be used during emergency
evacuations. Exhibit 2 shows four existing gated locations that we believe would be good routes for supporting
emergency evacuations from the surrounding communities if those gates were opened during said emergency. Vehicles
from the surrounding community could drive through Suncadia and avoid potentially congested roads in Ronald or
Rosyln. These gated locations include a gate at Nelson Farm, a gate near Fire District #7 off Bullfrog Road, a gate near
the Roslyn Cemetery connecting Nelson Dairy Road and Swiftwater Drive, and a gate off Steam Gin Loop connecting to
Highway 903.
The current Development Agreement Exhibit J Section 3 “Roads & Non-motorized Facilities” allows access tracts to be
designated as emergency access. When originally written, this section of the Development Agreement was likely
intended only for the Master Planned Resort. However, concurrent with the extension request and per comments by the
County, Suncadia is proposing that this Section of the Development Agreement be interpreted as providing for
emergency access in both directions thereby providing for additional community wide egress options. The identified
emergency access tracts described above and shown in the provided Exhibits and as designated pursuant Exhibit J will
be available in case of an emergency to the surrounding communities.
Sincerely,
Tucker Stevens and Mark Thorne

Subject: Comment on Proposed Extension of the Suncadia Development Agreement
My name is Ali Astrachan, and I am a homeowner in Suncadia. I am submi#ng this comment regarding Ki#tas
County’s considera8on of a request to extend the Suncadia Development Agreement.
For many of us who live in and care about this community, the Development Agreement represents a promise: that
growth would occur responsibly, that impacts would be addressed, and that commitments made to the County and the
public would be honored. Before any extension is granted, we must confirm if all promises have been kept.
The agreement requires infrastructure obliga8ons, environmental protec8ons, and verifica8on of whether the project
has secured sufficient water rights or resources to support full build-out. Yet the public record does not clearly show
what has been completed and what remains outstanding. Residents are le^ uncertain whether key commitments are
being honored.
Extending the agreement without a documented compliance review risks eroding trust, exposes the county to legal
challenges, and makes enforcement of earlier obliga8ons, especially 8me-sensi8ve ones, much harder.
I urge the County to require a formal compliance determina8on before any extension is granted. Any extension should
be condi8oned on verified fulfillment of all obliga8ons, with no forgiveness of unmet commitments and clear
expecta8ons for remaining responsibili8es.
Taking this step would demonstrate accountability, transparency, and respect for the community that has lived with the
impacts of this development for many years. It would also reaffirm that development agreements ma7er and that the
County stands behind the commitments made in them.
Respec_ully,
Ali Astrachan

CAUTION: This email originated from outside the Kittitas County network. Do not click

My name is Ira Astrachan and I am a homeowner in Suncadia. I am submitting this public comment in
response to Kittitas County’s request for input regarding the proposed extension of the Suncadia
Development Agreement.
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.
The current Agreement includes obligations related to infrastructure phasing, public amenities and
access, environmental mitigation, and other performance commitments that were part of the original
approvals. Given the age and maturity of the project, it is not clear from the public record which of these
obligations have been completed, which may have expired by their own terms, and which, if any, remain
outstanding.
Granting an extension without first establishing a clear, written record of compliance risks allowing
unresolved obligations to be assumed complete or superseded. Once an extension is approved, it
becomes significantly harder to enforce earlier requirements, particularly those tied to timing or early
phases of development.
At a minimum, I respectfully ask that the County require a written compliance review of the existing
Development Agreement prior to any consideration of an extension. While the County is not required to
grant an extension, the developer is required to comply with the agreement already in place.
If the County elects to proceed with an extension process, I ask that it be conditioned on independent
verification of compliance, no waiver or retroactive forgiveness of unmet obligations, and clear timelines
and reporting requirements for any remaining commitments.
Many Suncadia homeowners, including myself, value responsible development and a constructive
partnership with Kittitas County. Verifying the applicability and compliance of the existing Development
Agreement before granting additional time is an important step in maintaining transparency,
accountability, and public trust.
Thank you for your consideration.

I have attached a prepared response to the extension of Suncadia's master development
plan. I added a comment specifically about the Suncadia's requirement to provide
certain infrastructure improvements. I am specifically concerned about the wastewater
and sewage infrastructure, as I have concerns that those commitments have not been
completed, and should be specifically addressed in any extension to the development
plan.

Re: Suncadia Development Agreement Extension
I am a Suncadia homeowner writing in response to the County’s request for public comment on the proposed extension
of the Suncadia Development Agreement. I support responsible and well-planned development. However, I believe it is
premature to extend the agreement when it appears the developer has not demonstrated full compliance with its existing
obligations.
The Development Agreement includes numerous commitments related to infrastructure delivery (I am particularly
concerned about Suncadia's requirement to provide improvements to the waste water and sewage infrastructure, and
believe that the rapid pace of development has outpaced their required improvements. There are areas throughout the
resort that smell or sewage which could indicate that the existing system is already over capacity.), public amenities,
environmental mitigation, and cost allocation. These commitments were intended to protect residents, the public, and
the County. To date, it is not clear that all such obligations have been fully satisfied or independently verified.
Approving an extension without a documented compliance determination risks transferring unresolved obligations to
homeowners, future purchasers, or the County itself. It also weakens the enforceability of development agreements
generally by signaling that compliance is optional.
Before any extension is considered, I respectfully request that the County require a comprehensive written compliance
review of the existing Development Agreement. That review should document compliance status in detail and identify
any outstanding obligations that must be cured.
If the County elects to proceed with an extension process, it should be expressly conditioned on independent verification
of compliance, with no waiver of prior noncompliance and with clear enforcement mechanisms for remaining
obligations. This approach supports transparency, accountability, and public trust.

Mr. Ayling
I am a Suncadia homeowner writing in response to the County’s request for public comment
on the proposed extension of the Suncadia Development Agreement.
I support responsible and well-planned development. However, I believe it is premature to
extend the agreement when the developer has not demonstrated full compliance with its
existing, binding obligations. The Development Agreement contains numerous commitments
related to infrastructure delivery, public amenities, environmental mitigation, and cost
allocation. These provisions were intended to protect residents, the public, and the County. To
date, it is unclear whether all such obligations have been fully satisfied or independently
verified.
Examples include:
1. The basic supervision of builder contractors is not enforcing covered loads, parking,
noise, and speed limits for developer contractors.
2. The developer has been shown to participate in a scheme that charges existing
homeowners for pure development costs through an inclusive billing arrangement with
the Suncadia water company.
3. The developer continues to control the HOA board and is charging the homeowners’
HOA for builder trash removal and other builder costs.
4. The developer owes the HOA $2.8 million, plus interest, related to a prior overcharge.
The developer continues to ignore this obligation, and it now appears litigation will be
required.
5. Ignoring the National Forest Fire Safety guidelines for trimming and setbacks
6. Many more ….
Granting additional time without first resolving outstanding compliance issues creates long-
term risk. Approving an extension without a documented compliance determination risks
transferring unresolved obligations to homeowners, future purchasers, or the County itself. It
also weakens the enforceability of development agreements generally by signaling that
compliance is optional rather than required.
For these reasons, I respectfully request that the County conduct a comprehensive, written
compliance review of the existing Development Agreement before any extension is
considered. That review should clearly document the status of each obligation and identify any
outstanding items that must be cured.
To my knowledge, there have been no enforcement actions or complaints only because the
developer controls both the development process and the HOA board, including its ability to
communicate with the County and other officials.
Please consider the following:
1. If an extension is granted, please immediately request that the HOA board be
restructured as follows: one set of board seats reserved for the builder and one set of
four seats reserved for homeowners, to be filled through open elections.
2. Before any extension, it should be expressly conditioned on independent verification of
compliance, with no waiver of prior noncompliance, and with clear enforcement
mechanisms for any remaining obligations. This approach prioritizes accountability,
protects the public interest, and maintains public trust in the development approval
process.
Thank you for your consideration and for prioritizing enforcement, transparency, and long-
term community integrity.

Re: Suncadia Development Agreement Extension
To Whom It May Concern,
The current Suncadia Development Agreement contains several binding obligations that have
not been satisfied in a timely manner.
As a homeowner, I respectfully request that the County perform a compliance review and
condition the granting of the subject Extension request on first the fulfillment of existing
contractual obligations.
Thank you for your consideration.

S u ncad ia Devetoper Agreement Extensio n req u est Feb.3,2026
Members of the County Ptanning Commission;
I am Bruce Chattin, 281 Rocking Chair Rd., Suncadia. I am a futltime resident and a
Homeowner's Representative to the SROA Board of Directors.
Thank you for this opportunity to comment on the proposed extension of the Suncadia
DeveLopment Agreement and I Support the extension request as recorded.
I appreciate the assistance of JameyAyl.ing and BradLey Gasawski for their assistance in
providing an accurate overview of the proposed extension. Their knowl.edge provided me the
opportunitli{o communicate to our homeowners, what the proposed extension of the
Devel.opment Agreement was and wasn't and most importantly, what the changes were and
were not in the proposed extension. There are on[y 2 tracked changes contained in the Second
Amendment of the Restated Agreement in Exhibit D and those are to amend the dates of the
current agreement from 2030 lo2Q45.
I aLso appreciate the simil.ar comments our Suncadia homeowners have provided.
The proposed extension of the current agreement recognizes the downturn in economic,
construction and real estate markets that have occurred making the abil.ity to meet the 2030
compLetion date difficuLt to achieve. The extension attows Suncadia to extend the date to
buil.d out the resort under the same terms and conditions as are currentl,y in pl'ace.
Additional.l,y, it requires the instal.l.ation of Knox boxes on gated neighborhoods and the 903 gate
for Fire Department access and keeping the 903 gate open during an evacuation order.
Our current deveLoper; New Suncadia has been in pLace for 4 years and inherited the 2000 and
restated 2008 current devel.opment agreements from two previous devetopers. I appreciate
efforts of the Gounty and Devel.oper to review the overal,l, progress and conditions being met.
Thank you again for this opportunity and woul.d urge the Commission to pass the extension
request of the current Devel,oper Agreement. My comments are submitted as written
comments as wett.

Jamey:
I am a Suncadia homeowner submitting this public comment regarding the proposed extension of
the Suncadia Development Agreement. I support responsible development, but I believe it is
essential that the County verify compliance with the existing agreement before granting any
extension.
The current Development Agreement establishes clear requirements concerning infrastructure
delivery, environmental mitigation, public amenities, and financial responsibilities. Given the length
and complexity of this project, it is not clear that all obligations have been fully satisfied or
documented.
Before considering an extension, I respectfully request that the County conduct a formal, written
compliance review of the existing Development Agreement. This review should clearly identify which
obligations have been completed, which have expired by their terms, and which obligations remain
outstanding.
Granting an extension without this verification risks carrying unresolved obligations forward and
undermines confidence in the Development Agreement process. A compliance review protects
residents, future buyers, and the County itself.
Thank you for your attention to this request.

Dear Jamey,
I am not opposed to an extension of the Development Agreement between the
County and Suncadia with the following conditions:
An assessment of compliance with the initial agreement is conducted by the
County.
All areas of non-compliance are included into the new DA extension agreement
with accelerated terms of compliance with enforceable milestones and penalties
for continued non-compliance.

am not apposed to responsible development. My request is that the County review and verify
compliance with the existing Development Agreement before considering any extension.
The current Agreement includes obljgabons related to infrastructure phasing, public amenities and
access, environmental mitigation, and other performance commitments that were part of the original
approvals. Given the ale and maturity of the project, it is not clear from the public record which of these
obligations have been completed, which may have expired by their own terms, and which, if any, remain
outstanding.
Granting an extension without first establishing a clear, written record of compliance asks allowing
unresolved obligations to be assumed complete or superseded. Once an extension is approved, it
becomes significantly harder to enforce earlier requirements, particularly those tied to timing or early
phases of development.
At a minimum, I respectfully ask that the County require a written compliance review of the existing
Development Agreement prior to any consideration of an extension. White the bounty is not required to
grant an extension, the developer is required to comply with the agreement already in place.
If the County effects to proceed with an extension process, ! ask that it be conditioned on independent
verification of compliance, no waiver or retroactive forgiveness of unmet obligations, and clear timelines
and repart�ng requirements for any remaining commitments.
Many Suncadia homeowners, including myself, value responsible development and a constructive
partnership with Kittitas County. Verifying the applicability and compliance of the existing Development
Agreement before granting additional time is an important step in maintaining transparency,
accountability, and public trust.

To: Kittitas Community Development Services
We have been Tumble Creek property/home owners since 2005 and have endured multiple changes of
majority ownership of the Suncadia / Tumble Creek development, with the one constant being Lowe
Enterprises as the designated “Developer”. We have experienced the continued erosion of the
Development’s original vision, resulting in misrepresentations, unfulfilled promises and risk of diminished
value of our significant investment in the community.
Our request is that Kittitas Community Development Services perform a comprehensive compliance
review prior to any decision granting the extension of a Development Agreement. It is in the long-term
interest of all (current and future property owners, Kittitas County and the Developer) to assure the
Developer’s full compliance with its existing obligations.

Re: Suncadia Development Agreement Extension
We bought our lot in Suncadia in 2004, built a house in 2006/2007 and have lived here full time since 2010.
We have seen a lot of agreements and promises come and go during that time
We are concerned that the developer(s) have not fully complied with the Development Agreement currently in
effect.
Granting an extension before resolving unmet obligations would undermine the purpose of the agreement and
weaken accountability.
We request that the County require a written compliance determination confirming that all obligations have been
satisfied or identifying those that remain outstanding before considering an extension.
Thank you for considering our comments.

Re: Suncadia Application fora 15-year extension of the MPR
Kittitas County Team and Board Members,
Over the last 20+ years we have experienced life in the Upper County. I am for
development and follow through on a developer's promises. We bought ourvacant
homesite in August of 2006 in Suncadia and started building shortly thereafter and finished
in December of 2008. There are a large number of fabulous people in greater areas. Our
issue is with the developer (Lowe) and Association Managerof Suncadia (SMC). It has been
a very disappointing experience as they discriminate against the Suncadia Owners and
have a history of Mis Appropriation of funds from the Associations that is currently funded
by 82% by the private Suncadia and Tumble Creek owners. They have misappropriated
approximately$2.9 million in the last severalyears and have not paid these funds back
after disclosure about 2 years ago. Why would Kittitas County approve a 15-year
extension of the MPR Development Agreement when that will add Millions $$ to the
value of the resort's future development when the current Owners/Developer sells to
another? I hear that the developer is looking to sell Tumble Creek (No Confirmation).
What is the benefit for the current property owners or the County? I'm not aware of any
requirement to extend the MPR agreement and especiallya 15-year extension of the pain
to taxpayers. Any extension will a[so extend the developers' ability to mismanage the
associations per the CC&R's. Please review the facts below showing some of the
dishonesty of the current Developer/Manager.
Why would you sentence the current property owners that bought into the resort, to
more dishonesty? Note that the developer did not pay their property taxes on developer
owned property for several years of the MPR being underway when the private property
owners did.
If you are going to consider any extension of the MPR, Kittitas County should review
the application just like a new application for development. All of the studies are older
than 20 years. That includes all updated 2026 traffic studies including the impacts
from the Bullfrog Property that is currently being developed with 1334 residential
units, Updated EIS, Updated SEPA, Updated Water Rights/Current Use and if the
developer has complied with all of the requirements of the original MPR approval. I am
not aware of any requirement for an extension of any MPR for 15 years! I'm sure this
subject will be part of the next Kittitas County Election discussion between
candidates. Vote to deny the developer's request to benefit the residents so that the
developer will expedite improvements to increase the value of their assets within the
next 5 years.
• Commingling of Funds. The Developer and Suncadia Management Company
commingled Approx. $800,000.00 priorto 2009, between Tumble Creek, Suncadia
Residential Owner Association, Suncadia Community Council and Lowe -The
Developer. This took 3 years to clean up. $800,000.00 +-
• Mis Appropriated Funds. Over several years, behind the scenes, Lowe, the
developer and Suncadia Management Company, misappropriated approx. $2.9
million dollars from the associations and after disclosing it 2 years ago, have not
paid the money back to the associations. $2,900,000.00+-
• Current Misappropriation of Suncadia Community Council Funds... Suncadia
Management Company and the developer (Lowe+) have Mis Appropriated
$528,400.00 forthe Firewising of Developer Owned/Non-Open Space, Non-SCC
Properties in 2025. $528,400.00
• The Suncadia Water Companywas sold and Roger Beck, Managing Director sent
owner a letter that stated that "There will be no change in your water and sewer
rates as a result of the sale." Water and sewer rates have increased almost
annually since this change and now we are paying double what the rates were in
2020.
• Riverfront Park Access. All residential owners pay for equal access to SCC
properties. The SCC riverfront park is accessed byTC owners' vehicles, Outside
Golf Members vehicles of the TC Golf Course who pay Thousands in membership
fees to the developer and about 140 property owners'vehicles that have legal
access through Tumble Creek in their automobiles. The access is over a non-
exclusive easement thatTC and others use but do not own. The property owners in
Suncadia that payforthe lion's share of the SCC budget only have access to the
riverfront park via the hundreds of steps behind the lodge. This means that anyone
that has any handicap or doubt about descending the hundreds of concrete steps
down to the river or back up the hundreds of steps do not have equal access. This
has been discussed for several years and as of today, there is no equal access over
the developer's property to access the park. Visit the Lodge, stand at the top of the
steps, and you will immediately understand the issue.
This is Discrimination!
Older but not close to all of the developer issues.
Wine In The Pines Suncadia Marketing Event -The developer used $25,000.00 from
the SROAto buy wine from wineries for a marketing event, then charged owners a
fee of $42.50 per attendee. When the event was over, Lowe was going to use the
remainingwine (paid for bythe association) to sellwithin their retail operations with
no consideration to the SROA.
• Late Completion of Rope Rider Golf Course. The RR Course was completed 3 years
Later than Lowe represented after several owners hired an attorney to press the
subject as Chris Kelsey, VP of Lowe's made commitments when the lots were sold
that Rope Rider was to be finished by 2008.
• The Suncadia Management Company did not disclose the management agreement
with their subsidiary to any purchaser through the Public Offering Statement as
required by law. To this date, the management agreement has not been distributed
to the owners or posted on the Suncadia Website, nor is it disclosed as a part of the
Public Offering Statement.
• Suncadia Village Misrepresentation. Lowe represented that the Village was to be
built as soon as the Lodge was completed by the same contractor that was building
the lodge in 2009. Needless to say, the village is now being built 17 years later than
promised.
Note that Lowe's commitments were used as sales tools, and their misrepresentations
extend for manyyears. There is a generation of original purchasers that nevergot to
experience what was promised by Lowe when they purchased their property.

Re: Suncadia Development Agreement Extension
We are Suncadia homeowners that are submitting this public comment regarding the proposed extension of the
Suncadia Development Agreement. We support responsible development, but we believe it is essential that the
County verify compliance with the existing agreement before any extension is granted.
The current Development Agreement establishes clear requirements concerning infrastructure delivery,
environmental mitigation, public amenities, and financial responsibilities. Given the length and complexity of this
project, it is not clear to us that all obligations have been fully satisfied or documented.
Before considering an extension, we respectfully request that the County conduct a formal, written compliance
review of the existing Development Agreement. This review should clearly identify which obligations have been
completed, which have expired by their terms, and which obligations remain outstanding.
Granting an extension without this verification risks carrying unresolved obligations forward and undermines
confidence in the Development Agreement process. A compliance review protects residents, future buyers, and the
County itself.

Hi Jamey-
My name is Stacy Heintz and I am a Suncadia homeowner since 2004, submitting public
comment on the proposed extension of the Suncadia Development Agreement.
I am far from anti-development (I have a background in real estate) but I want responsible
development. I propose that the County review the existing Development Agreement for
compliance before approving any extension.
The developer is hoping to sell the resort at some point and granting an extension without first
documenting compliance makes it harder and potentially more expensive for us to enforce
unfulfilled commitments after the fact. We need a written compliance review BEFORE any
extension is granted.
Thank you for reading this. And I sincerely hope you agree!

Before considering any extension of the Suncadia Development Agreement, the County should first determine

Re: Suncadia Application for a 15-year extension of the MPR
Kittitas County Board Members,
We have been involved in the Upper County for 30+ years. After having a cabin on the
Yakima River on acreagenearSouth Cle Elum, our parents were cons ideringTumbleCreek
and ended up buying a lot in Suncadia and building a home starting in 2005. My sister and I
also bought a homesite, and each built in Suncadia. After many years, our parents lived in
their home in Suncadia and now it now belongs to us, and our parents were never able to
enjoy all of the amenities that Lowe promised to create when they bought and built here.
They lived here for most of16 years without Suncadia Village and other amenities the
developer promised. The developer also promised direct access to Suncadia Village via
either abridge orfootbridge across the Cle Elum River from Tumble Creek which to date
has never happened.
In regard to the developer requesting a 1 5-yearextension of their MPR development
agreement, we see no reason to approvetheir request. Theywill only failto complete the
amenities originallysoldto everyone duringthefirst manyyears of their marketing the
resort. An extension will only allow the current investor to increase their return on
investment when they sell, and once again, the resort will not be complete for a long period
of time. This is the time for Kittitas County to apply pressure on the current Developer to
complete the plan that was approved over20 years ago. The property owners who own
homes, condos and vacant parcels all hope to experience a complete resort soon. All of
the developers' stories as to why they have not been able to proceed or that the plans are
being created, are old news and misrepresentations. In a few years, a second generation
will have experienced an unfinished resort.
Please apply pressure to the Lowe organization to follow through with all the original
representations and finish up their involvement.
Thank You!

Re: Suncadia Development Agreement Extension
Dear Sirs:
We’d like to comment on the proposed extension to the Suncadia Development Agreement.
The existing agreement contains binding commitments related to infrastructure, environmental
mitigation, and cost allocation. Several of these obligations may be unresolved. We’d simply
like to know which, if any, there are. Wouldn’t you?
Granting an extension of the Development Agreement before confirming compliance of
binding commitments in the original proposal would effectively excuse any unfinished
obligations.
We are Suncadia/Tumble Creek homeowners since 2010 who value transparency and

and corrective action plan before considering any extension.
Development should proceed only after obligations are met.

Mr. Ayling,
I am writing this as a concerned resident of the Suncadia/Tumble Creek development. Many things have changed
since the original development plans were filed with the county. The governing body most issues is the Home
Owners Association (HOA). The Developer holds controlling interest until 90% of the development is sold, the
home owners have a voice but no control. The Developer makes many decisions based on their financial gain;
perhaps not in the best interest of the home owners.
One such decision was the sale of the water company. Originally, the water company was owned and managed by
the Developer. It has since been sold. It was billed to the property owners and the Utility Commission as a no cost
change. Since the sale, there has been a deliberate cost shift of future water system development costs for future
homes, from developer to the water consumers (current home owners) resulting in increases to our water rates. The
water system is not fully developed to cover the future growth and will need further expansion. I assume this will
drive additional cost increases to my water bill.
I’m not apposed to continued development, I just want the developer held to the original agreements and the
homeowners have a equal vote in costs that will be paid by the HOA.
Thank you for your consideration in this matter.

Dear Jamie Ayling,
As a homeowner in Suncadia, I am writing to comment on the proposed extension of the
Suncadia Development Agreement. I am not opposed to development, however, I believe
accountability under the existing agreement must come first.
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.
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.
Proceeding without this step risks weakening enforcement and shifting unresolved
responsibilities onto residents or the County. Ensuring compliance first preserves
transparency and public trust.
The following are specific examples of how many Suncadia homeowners believe Suncadia
management is falling short of its legal commitment to homeowners.
In November 2023 an audit revealed that Suncadia overcharged us for security and
patrols by $2.8 million dollars over the prior 8 years. With interest it amounts to circa
$3.3 million owed to homeowners immediately. Suncadia has dragged its feet about
repayment and seems to be hoping Washington’s 3-year statute of limitations on the
matter will expire this fall without repayment.
We homeowners pay for forestry management, particularly for fire-wising. In the name of
“forestry management” though, Suncadia uses our funds to clear land it’s opening for
selling lots in its new neighborhoods.
We homeowners pay for construction waste disposal but only builders and contractors
can access it; a violation of the Developer Agreement Suncadia’s asking Kittitas to
extend.
As the number of residents grow, we are entitled to increase the number of
Homeowners on the Board that makes financial decisions. That number has not grown
as the Developer Agreement specifies.
Suncadia shifted sewer responsibilities through the sale of its water and sewers utility,
contradicting the Developer Agreement. As a result, dollars that were collected as
part of our lot purchases were not carried forward to the new utility and our monthly
water bills have consequently almost doubled.
Thank you for considering my comments.

Tim

I am concerned that the developer has not fully complied with the Development Agreement currently in effect.
Granting an extension before resolving unmet obligations would undermine the purpose of the agreement and
weaken accountability.
I request that the County require a written compliance determination confirming that all obligations have been
satisfied or identifying those that remain outstanding before considering an extension.
Compliance must precede continuation.

As a homeowner in Suncadia for over 18 years, I am aware of many obligations that have
not been satisfied by the developer, therefore I urgently request that the County perform a
compliance review and granti any extension based on fulfillment of existing contractual
obligations.
Thank you for your consideration.

Re: Suncadia Development Agreement Extension
My name is Susan Miller, and I have been a full time Suncadia homeowner since 2015. I
am submitting a public comment on the proposed extension of the Suncadia
Development Agreement for 15 years.
I am not opposed to development, but I respectfully ask that the County review the
existing Development Agreement for applicability and compliance before approving any
extension. Given the age of the project, it is not clear from the public record which
obligations have been completed, which may have expired, and which may remain
outstanding.
Granting an extension without first documenting compliance makes it harder to enforce
earlier commitments later. I ask that any extension be considered only after a written
compliance review, and that it not waive or retroactively forgive unmet obligations.
The developer controlled association has allowed irrigation and landscaping around
homesites that has been designated open space and is supposed to remain natural.
With the rate of water usage in the development now, it is difficult to see how the resort
can support the additional proposed development over the next 20 years. As proven by
this year’s drought, water is going to be scarce in the years to come.
At the HOA board meeting this week, the developer said that they had seen the
comments sent to the county from the owners and would be responding to those
questions about their compliance with the development agreement. Those responses
should have been submitted with their original filing and able to be reviewed by the
public, not at the 11th hour. This is exactly what we are requesting. A thoughtful,
deliberate consideration of this development agreement prior to an unusual and very
lengthy extension.
Thank you for your time and consideration.

Re: Suncadia Development Agreement Extension
As a 20+ year property owner and 10+ year full-time resident of Suncadia and Kittitas County I am proudof our community and its contributions to the county. I am submitting this public comment in response to
Kittitas County’s request for input regarding the proposed extension of the Suncadia Development
Agreement.
I am not opposed to responsible development. My request is that the County review and verifycompliance with the existing Development Agreement before considering any extension.
We purchased here because of the resort’s commitment to open space and maintaining the naturalenvironment. I know that those are important to all of Kittitas County. I am opposed to the 15 year
extension of the current Development Agreement in place with the Suncadia developer without a
thorough examination of how well they have complied with the agreement in the first 25 of 30 years.
The current Agreement includes obligations related to infrastructure phasing, public amenities andaccess, environmental mitigation, and other performance commitments that were part of the originalapprovals. Given the age and maturity of the project, it is not clear from the public record which of these
obligations have been completed, which may have expired by their own terms, and which, if any, remain
outstanding.
Granting an extension without first establishing a clear, written record of compliance risks allowingunresolved obligations to be assumed complete or superseded. Once an extension is approved, itbecomes significantly harder to enforce earlier requirements, particularly those tied to timing or early
phases of development.
At a minimum, I respectfully ask that the County require a written compliance review of the existing
Development Agreement prior to any consideration of an extension. While the County is not required togrant an extension, the developer is required to comply with the agreement already in place.
If the County elects to proceed with an extension process, I ask that it be conditioned on independentverification of compliance, no waiver or retroactive forgiveness of unmet obligations, and clear timelines
and reporting requirements for any remaining commitments.
Many Suncadia homeowners, including myself, value responsible development and a constructive
partnership with Kittitas County. Verifying the applicability and compliance of the existing DevelopmentAgreement before granting additional time is an important step in maintaining transparency,accountability, and public trust.
Thank you for your consideration.

Hello Rick,
Thank you for your inquiry. The project is not a new project it is the Suncadia Development it
was originally approved in 2000 and was anticipated to be built out by the year 2030 however
market conditions and other factors have slowed the full build out of Suncadia so the
developer has requested an additional 15 years to complete what was originally approved
including your property. This notice has nothing to do with the Blue Fern Development across
the street that you are referring to.
Happy to answer any questions you may have. Thanks Jamey

Hi Jamey and Happy New Year. We recieved notice on project #DV-25-0001. We have a
home in Suncadia.
The Notice says the tract is 6,320 acres. Is there anything in the applications saying
what the developer plans to do with the property and the timing? This looks near the
current project across Bullfrog road (across from Suncadia). Is that where it's located?

Good afternoon Frank,
Honestly there is no concern to any of the properties within the Suncadia development.
Suncadia has requested an extension to the existing development agreement for fifteen years
so that they can keep using the same development standards to hopefully complete the
originally proposed and approved buildout for an additional 15 years rather than being subject
to new standards that have been adopted since the original approval in 2000. The original
agreement expires in 2030 and they don’t think they will be built out by then so they requested
an extension to 2045. This action requires public hearing which is why I sent notice to the 2189
property owners. Any additional questions let me know. There is a link below to all of the
materials for this file if you are interested thanks Jamey

Re: Suncadia Development Agreement Extension
I am a Suncadia homeowner writing in response to the County s request for public comment
on the proposed extension of the Suncadia Development Agreement. I support an extension.
However, I believe it is premature to extend the agreement when it appears the developer has
not demonstrated full compliance with its existing obligations.
The Development Agreement includes numerous commitments related to infrastructure
delivery, public amenities, environmental mitigation, and cost allocation. These commitments
were intended to protect residents, the public, and the County. To date, it is not clear that all
such obligations have been fully satisfied or independently verified.
Approving an extension without a documented compliance determination risks transferring
unresolved obligations to homeowners, future purchasers, or the County itself. It also
weakens the enforceability of development agreements generally by signaling that compliance
is optional.
Before any extension is considered, I respectfully request that the County require a
comprehensive written compliance review of the existing Development Agreement. That
review should document compliance status in detail and identify any outstanding obligations
that must be cured.
If the County elects to proceed with an extension process, it should be expressly conditioned
on independent verification of compliance, with no waiver of prior noncompliance and with
clear enforcement mechanisms for remaining obligations. This approach supports
transparency, accountability, and public trust.

Re: Suncadia Development Agreement Extension
My name is Valerie OLeary, and I am a homeowner in Suncadia. I am submitting this public
comment in response to Kittitas County’s request for input regarding the proposed
extension of the Suncadia Development Agreement.
The current Agreement includes obligations related to infrastructure phasing, public
amenities and access, environmental mitigation, and other performance commitments that
were part of the original approvals. Given the age and maturity of the project, it is not clear
from the public record which of these obligations have been completed, which may have
expired by their own terms, and which, if any, remain outstanding.
For the past three years the area has experienced reduced hydrological events, and the
number of developments besides Suncadia are on the rise. I am very concerned about the
availability of water going forward. The demographics of homeowners is changing with
more people living here permanently rather than vacation homes. This assumption should
be reviewed for its impact on water usage. Is Suncadia compliant with their water rights?
My other area of concern is open space. I have concerns with how this is calculated. My
understanding is that areas around the houses are counted as open space. The newer
sections of Suncadia appear to have bigger building envelopes than the original homes. I
think that calculation needs to be audited for compliance.
Also, why is the request for 15 more years? When you add that to the existing 5 years, that
is another 20 years. I think the extension should be for something less, maybe 10 more
years.
Granting an extension without first establishing a clear, written record of compliance risks
allowing unresolved obligations to be the new standard. It becomes significantly harder to
enforce earlier requirements, particularly those tied to timing or early phases of
development after the extension has been granted.
Since there are five years remaining I would like for the County to review and verify
compliance with the existing Development Agreement before considering any extension.

Kittitas County Development Services,
As a longer-term homeowner at Suncadia, I would request you not approve an extension at
this time. My reasoning is I believe all long-term developments should be required to pass a
comprehensive, and preferably independent, review as to whether or not they have complied
with previous county and Suncadia covenants and requirements before being allowed to
continue to proceed. Since homeowners have no truly independent means to assure Suncadia
manages the development as promised, including providing services promised or enforcing
homeowner protective covenants, we need assistance of the County to assure compliance.
An independent review would be of great assistance to highlight areas of good or bad
stewardship before moving further forward.
Thanks you,
Rob Wilson

Re: Suncadia Development Agreement Extension
To Jamey Ayling et al,
I am a homeowner in Tumble Creek/ Suncadia and am submitting this public comment in response to Kittitas
County’s request for input regarding the proposed extension of the Suncadia Development Agreement.
My request is that the County review and verify compliance with the existing Development Agreement before
considering any extension(s).
The current agreement includes obligations related to infrastructure phasing, public amenities access, environmental
mitigation, and other performance commitments that were part of the original approvals. Given the age and maturity
of the project, it is not clear from the public record which of these obligations have been completed, which may have
expired and if any remain outstanding. Once an extension is approved, it becomes significantly harder to enforce
earlier requirements, particularly those tied to timing or early phases of
development.
Granting an extension without first establishing a clear, written record of compliance risks allowing unresolved
obligations to be assumed completed or superseded.
If the County elects to proceed with an extension process, I ask that it be conditioned on independent verification of
compliance; no waiver or retroactive forgiveness of unmet obligations, clear timelines, reporting requirements.
Prioritizing public transparency and accountability are key factors in maintaining the public trust.
Thank you,
Kathleen Woodward

As a homeowner in Suncadia, I am writing to comment on the proposed extension of the
Suncadia Development Agreement. I am not opposed to development; however, I believe
accountability under the existing agreement must come first.
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.
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.
Proceeding without this step risks weakening enforcement and shifting unresolved
responsibilities onto residents or the County. Ensuring compliance first preserves transparency
and public trust.
Thank you for considering my comments.

2. There are many comments provided that are not related to the Development Agreement. Suncadia has provided a brief response to many of these comments herein for clarity and so that the County knows we understand and are addressing these community concerns.

Ali Astrachan Jan 23, 2026
The agreement requires infrastructure obligations, environmental protections, and verification
of whether the project has secured sufficient water rights or resources to support full build-out.
Yet the public record does not clearly show what has been completed and what remains
outstanding. Residents are left uncertain whether key commitments are being honored.
I urge the County to require a formal compliance determination before any extension is granted.
Any extension should be conditioned on verified fulfillment of all obligations, with no
forgiveness of unmet commitments and clear expectations for remaining responsibilities.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.

Greg Blaine Jan 19, 2026
I am specifically concerned about the wastewater and sewage infrastructure, as I have concerns
that those commitments have not been completed, and should be specifically addressed in any
extension to the development plan.Infrastructure / Sewer
The Applicant acknowledges the comment regarding wastewater and sewer infrastructure. Wastewater and sewer facilities serving
the project have been constructed, operated, and regulated in accordance with approved permits and applicable standards. Suncadia
completed construction of the sewage treatment plant in Cle Elum in 2005 and that plant is operated by the City of Cle Elum. That
plant and the associated piping mains were sized to accommodate Suncadia at full build out. New infrastructure is constructed for
new neighborhoods in accordance with applicable code. Compliance with Development Agreement infrastructure obligations is
documented through County approvals and utility agreements. No outstanding wastewater infrastructure obligations remain as
conditions to the proposed extension.
Blaine (2) Jan 20, 2026
I am particularly concerned about Suncadia's requirement to provide improvements to the
waste water and sewage infrastructure, and believe that the rapid pace of development has
outpaced their required improvements.Infrastructure / Sewer
The Applicant acknowledges the comment regarding wastewater and sewer infrastructure. Wastewater and sewer facilities serving
the project have been constructed, operated, and regulated in accordance with approved permits and applicable standards. Suncadia
completed construction of the sewage treatment plant in Cle Elum in 2005 and that plant is operated by the City of Cle Elum. That
plant and the associated piping mains were sized to accommodate Suncadia at full build out. Compliance with Development
Agreement infrastructure obligations is documented through County approvals and utility agreements. No outstanding wastewater
infrastructure obligations remain as conditions to the proposed extension.
1. There is a common thread in the comments submitted requesting a verification of compliance with the existing agreement. Suncadia has been and will continue to be committed to meeting all commitments. Furthermore, the Development Agreement extension does not relieve Suncadia from the commitments and obligations
in the agreement. Several commitments were fulfilled in the yearly years of the Development (e.g. installation of the stoplight in Cle Elum). However, a large number of requirements are "on-going" in nature and are confirmed through plat approvals for all new phases of Suncadia. Please note that the comment letters submitted
on this topic were all very similar and the public comment excerpt provided below is solely a brief summary of the comment in order to facilitate a response.

Rex Bloesser Jan 25, 2026
I believe it is premature to extend the agreement when the developer has not demonstrated full
compliance with its existing, binding obligations.
Examples include:
1. The basic supervision of builder contractors is not enforcing covered loads, parking, noise, and
speed limits for developer contractors.
2. The developer has been shown to participate in a scheme that charges existing
homeowners for pure development costs through an inclusive billing arrangement with the
Suncadia water company.
3. The developer continues to control the HOA board and is charging the homeowners’ HOA for
builder trash removal and other builder costs.
4. The developer owes the HOA $2.8 million, plus interest, related to a prior overcharge. The
developer continues to ignore this obligation, and it now appears litigation will be required.
5. Ignoring the National Forest Fire Safety guidelines for trimming and setbacks
Please consider the following:
1. If an extension is granted, please immediately request that the HOA board be
restructured as follows: one set of board seats reserved for the builder and one set of
four seats reserved for homeowners, to be filled through open elections.
2. Before any extension, it should be expressly conditioned on independent verification of
compliance, with no waiver of prior noncompliance, and with clear enforcement
mechanisms for any remaining obligations. This approach prioritizes accountability,
protects the public interest, and maintains public trust in the development approval
process.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.
Responses below are provided for clarification, although most of these are unrelated to the Development Agreement.
1. Suncadia includes provisions in contracts for developer activity regarding builder "rules" that must be followed. Suncadia enforces
these through active construction management and has engaged with the County on this topic through plat applications. Home
builders follow rules outlined in the Design Review Guidelines and are enforced by the Suncadia Design Review Committee (DRC).
2. Suncadia sold the water and sewer utility companies to a private utility operator in 2019. The sale was approved by the Washington
Utilities and Transportation Commission (UTC). Water rates are also reviewed and approved by the UTC. In 2024, Suncadia negotiated
an agreement with the private utility operator to impose a "connection fee" for new lot connections to ensure that existing
homeowners do not cover the cost of new lot infrastructure. Suncadia does not in any capacity have an "inclusive billing
arrangement" with the water company.
3. Suncadia, as the declarant, has control of the HOA boards as allowed under the governing documents until a future date when 90%
of the community is built out. Costs for trash removal are borne by homeowners/builders building new homes. Suncadia, through the
Suncadia Community Council, manages the waste disposal as a service.
4. Suncadia is working through a historic overbilling issue with the HOA and is very actively involved with finding resolution through a
full refund. This is unrelated to the Development Agreement.
5. It is not clear what this comment is referring to. Suncadia has a Land Stewardship Plan in place that directs forest management.
Suncadia contracts with a professional forester on forest treatment. Since 2014, Suncadia has treated over 1,000 acres of open space
for fire resiliency. In 2026, Suncadia plans to treat over 200 acres for fire resiliency. Suncadia is also working on a program that
individual homeowners can adopt to make their home wildfire ready.

I am not opposed to an extension of the Development Agreement between the County and

with its obligations to the Suncadia homeowners under the Development Agreement before
deciding whether to agree with Suncadia's request for an extension.Compliance Verification
The Applicant acknowledges the request for a formal compliance review. The Development Agreement has been implemented
through multiple County-reviewed permits and approvals that confirm compliance with applicable obligations. The proposed

Stacy Heintz Jan 19, 2026
Granting an extension without first documenting compliance makes it harder and potentially

Mark Lucas Jan 19, 2026
I am a Suncadia homeowner who supports responsible development. 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.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.
Charles Lynch Jan 25, 2026
The governing body most issues is the Home Owners Association (HOA). The Developer holds
controlling interest until 90% of the development is sold, the home owners have a voice but no
control. The Developer makes many decisions based on their financial gain; perhaps not in the
best interest of the home owners.
One such decision was the sale of the water company. Originally, the water company was
owned and managed by the Developer. It has since been sold. It was billed to the property
owners and the Utility Commission as a no cost change. Since the sale, there has been a
deliberate cost shift of future water system development costs for future homes, from
developer to the water consumers (current home owners) resulting in increases to our water
rates. The water system is not fully developed to cover the future growth and will need further
expansion. I assume this will drive additional cost increases to my water bill.
I'm not apposed (sic) to continued development, I just want the developer held to the original
agreements and the homeowners have a equal vote in costs that will be paid by the HOA.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.
The comment regarding the utility companies is not related to the Development Agreement. Suncadia sold the water and sewer
utility companies to a private utility operator in 2019. The sale was approved by the Washington Utilities and Transportation
Commission (UTC). Water rates are also reviewed and approved by the UTC. In 2024, Suncadia negotiated an agreement with the
private utility operator to impose a "connection fee" for new lot connections to ensure that existing homeowners do not cover the
cost of new lot infrastructure.
Tim B. Magee Jan 20, 2026
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.
The following are specific examples of how many Suncadia homeowners believe Suncadia
management is falling short of its legal commitment to homeowners.
1) In November 2023 an audit revealed that Suncadia overcharged us for security and patrols by
$2.8 million dollars over the prior 8 years. With interest it amounts to circa $3.3 million owed to
homeowners immediately. Suncadia has dragged its feet about repayment and seems to be
hoping Washington’s 3-year statute of limitations on the matter will expire this fall without
repayment.
2) We homeowners pay for forestry management, particularly for fire-wising. In the name of
“forestry management” though, Suncadia uses our funds to clear land it’s opening for selling lots
in its new neighborhoods.
3) We homeowners pay for construction waste disposal but only builders and contractors can
access it; a violation of the Developer Agreement Suncadia’s asking Kittitas to extend.
4) As the number of residents grow, we are entitled to increase the number of
Homeowners on the Board that makes financial decisions. That number has not grown as the
Developer Agreement specifies.
5) Suncadia shifted sewer responsibilities through the sale of its water and sewers utility,
contradicting the Developer Agreement. As a result, dollars that were collected as part of our lot
purchases were not carried forward to the new utility and our monthly water bills have
consequently almost doubled.Compliance Verification
The Applicant acknowledges the concerns raised regarding financial and governance matters. HOA governance, utility billing, and
operational matters are administered pursuant to governing documents and applicable law and are separate from the Development
Agreement extension request.
The additional comments are not related to the Development Agreement, but the Applicant provides the following response:
1) Suncadia is working through a historic overbilling issue with the HOA and is very actively involved with finding resolution through a
full refund.
2) Suncadia has a Land Stewardship Plan in place that directs forest management. Suncadia contracts with a professional forester on
forest treatment. Since 2014, Suncadia has treated over 1,000 acres of open space for fire resiliency. In 2026, Suncadia plans to treat
over 200 acres for fire resiliency. Suncadia is also working on a program that individual homeowners can adopt to make their home
wildfire ready. Suncadia does not use HOA funds to clear lots for new development - the funds are used to treat forest consistent with
the Land Stewardship Plan for the benefit of all of Suncadia.
3) Costs for trash removal are borne by homeowners/builders building new homes. Suncadia, through the Suncadia Community
Council, manages the waste disposal as a service.
4) Suncadia, as the declarant, has control of the HOA boards as allowed under the governing documents until a future date when 90%
of the community is built out.
5) 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. Utility costs have risen over the past several years consistent with rising costs in all areas - namely labor costs, electricity
costs, and materials costs.

In regard to the developer requesting a 15-year extension of their MPR development
agreement, we see no reason to approve their request. They will only fail to complete the
amenities originally sold to everyone during the first many years of their marketing the resort.
.... Please apply pressure to the Lowe organization to follow through with all the original
representations and finish up their involvement.Compliance Verification
The comments provided are unrelated to the Development Agreement are instead appear to be about business decisions. The
Applicant is committed to fulfilling their requirements under the Development Agreement and are also continuing to build out new
community amenities. In the past 3 years, Suncadia has renovated the Lodge restaurant, renovated the spa, built new parks and
broken ground on a new retail village that will open in June 2026.

Granting an extension before resolving unmet obligations would undermine the purpose of the
agreement.Compliance Verification
The Applicant acknowledges the request for a compliance determination. Development Agreement obligations have been
implemented through phased approvals and County oversight. The extension does not waive enforceable requirements.

I urgently request that the County perform a compliance review and granti any extension based
on fulfillment of existing contractual obligations.Compliance Verification
The Applicant acknowledges the request for a compliance determination. Development Agreement obligations have been
implemented through phased approvals and County oversight. The extension does not waive enforceable requirements.
Doug & Karen McDonald Jan 20, 2026
The Development Agreement includes enforceable agreements for infrastructure,
environmental mitigation, public access, and financial responsibility.
We are Suncadia homeowners who support responsible development. However, extending an
agreement while obligations remain unmet shifts risk away from the developer and onto
residents and the County.
I respectfully request that the County conduct a written compliance review and require
resolution of outstanding obligations prior to any extension decision.Compliance Verification
The Applicant acknowledges the request for a compliance determination. Development Agreement obligations have been
implemented through phased approvals and County oversight. The extension does not waive enforceable requirements.
Susan Miller Jan 25, 2026
I am not opposed to development, but I respectfully ask that the County review the existing
Development Agreement for applicability and compliance before approving any extension.
Given the age of the project, it is not clear from the public record which obligations have been
completed, which may have expired, and which may remain outstanding.
The developer controlled association has allowed irrigation and landscaping around
homesites that has been designated open space and is supposed to remain natural.
With the rate of water usage in the development now, it is difficult to see how the resort can
support the additional proposed development over the next 20 years. As proven by this year’s
drought, water is going to be scarce in the years to come.
At the HOA board meeting this week, the developer said that they had seen the
comments sent to the county from the owners and would be responding to those
questions about their compliance with the development agreement. Those responses should
have been submitted with their original filing and able to be reviewed by the public, not at the
11th hour. This is exactly what we are requesting. A thoughtful, deliberate consideration of this
development agreement prior to an unusual and very lengthy extension.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 or waive enforceable requirements.
The Applicant recognizes the risk of continued drought and is in the process of gathering better data on how to appropriately
respond. This may include reassessing home irrigation practices.
Thomas Miller Jan 19, 2026
I am opposed to the 15 year extension of the current Development Agreement without a
thorough examination of how well they have complied with the agreement. …. At a minimum, I
respectfully ask that the County require a written compliance review of the existing
Development Agreement prior to any consideration of an extension. While the County is not
required to grant an extension, the developer is required to comply with the agreement already
in place.Compliance / Extension Scope
The Applicant acknowledges the concern regarding the length of the extension and the request for independent verification of
compliance. The proposed extension maintains existing obligations and does not reduce County authority to enforce applicable
requirements.

Valerie Oleary Jan 23, 2026
The current Agreement includes obligations related to infrastructure phasing, public
amenities and access, environmental mitigation, and other performance commitments that
were part of the original approvals. Given the age and maturity of the project, it is not clear from
the public record which of these obligations have been completed, which may have expired by
their own terms, and which, if any, remain outstanding.
For the past three years the area has experienced reduced hydrological events, and the number
of developments besides Suncadia are on the rise. I am very concerned about the availability of
water going forward. The demographics of homeowners is changing with more people living
here permanently rather than vacation homes. This assumption should be reviewed for its
impact on water usage. Is Suncadia compliant with their water rights?
My other area of concern is open space. I have concerns with how this is calculated. My
understanding is that areas around the houses are counted as open space. The newer sections
of Suncadia appear to have bigger building envelopes than the original homes. I think that
calculation needs to be audited for compliance.
Also, why is the request for 15 more years? When you add that to the existing 5 years, that is
another 20 years. I think the extension should be for something less, maybe 10 more years.
Granting an extension without first establishing a clear, written record of compliance risks
allowing unresolved obligations to be the new standard. It becomes significantly harder to
enforce earlier requirements, particularly those tied to timing or early phases of development
after the extension has been granted.
Since there are five years remaining I would like for the County to review and verify
compliance with the existing Development Agreement before considering any extension.Compliance Verification
The Applicant acknowledges the request for independent verification of compliance. 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 retroactively modify prior obligations or waive existing obligations but preserves
the County’s ability to enforce applicable requirements.
Please refer to the Submitted Suncadia response on Water Rights.
Suncadia regularly audits adherence to open space requirements as new land is surveyed and platted. With each new plat application,
Suncadia updates and submits to the County "Exhibit M" Open Space Calculation. This document tabulates open space acreage and
confirms we are on track to maintain a 80% or higher open space calculation.

As a homeowner at Suncadia, I believe the proposed extension should be denied unless and until
the developer demonstrates full compliance with the existing Development Agreement.
Unresolved obligations should not be carried forward through an extension. Doing so places the

Suncadia response le er to the Development Agreement Extension public comment regarding
water rights
We respec ully submit this response to comments about the water rights authorized for use for
the MPR. Based on extensive water right planning for the MPR in coordina on with the
Washington State Department of Ecology and Department of Health, there are sufficient water
rights for the permi'ed number of units.
The Washington State Department of Ecology has authorized the use of up to 3,059 acre-feet
annually for municipal water supply purposes for the MPR. There are seven Water Rights
authorized for use on the MPR, more par cularly described below.
The Water Rights authorized for the MPR iden fy the total annual quan ty and the annual
consump ve use of water. The total annual quan ty is the maximum volume of water (in acre-
feet per year) that can be used under the water right. This is the amount of water conveyed to
the MPR for use. The annual consump ve quan ty is the amount of water consumed within the
place of use and not returned based on groundwater flow or wastewater. The annual consump ve
quan ty is a subset of the total annual quan ty.
The Water Rights authorized for the MPR are as follows:
Water Right Annual Quantity (annually)
Consumptive Quantity
(annually)
S4-85226-J 536.3 AF 192.49 AF-CU

G4-36089/S4-36088
103.3 AF-CU
Totals 3,059 AF 1,264.99 AF
The Departments of Ecology and Health have undertaken review of the Water Rights and water
demands. In approving the Water Rights for use on the MPR, the Washington Department of
Ecology reviewed modeling for water demands for the MPR that were developed and reviewed
as part of the environmental impact statement process. The Department of Health has also
evaluated the Water Rights when determining whether there is sufficient water available for use.
Recently the County received comments about water rights for the MPR as part of its
considera on of the Development Agreement amendment. We respec ully submit that the
commentors mistakenly considered only part of the consump ve use available under the Water
Rights. The average daily water use based on meter readings is the total annual volume not the
consump ve quan ty. As noted above, the total volume of water available to the MPR is 3,059
acre-feet annually, not 1,161.71 acre-feet.1
There are sufficient water rights to meet the needs of the MPR. In addi on, we will con nue to
demonstrate that water is available through each plat applica on and in accordance with state
law.
1 The commentators focused only on the consumptive use quantity and likely did not also include the Water
Rights G4-36089/S4-36088.

The agreement requires infrastructure obligations, environmental protections, and verification of
whether the project has secured sufficient water rights or resources to support full build-out. Yet the
public record does not clearly show what has been completed and what remains outstanding.
Residents are left uncertain whether key commitments are being honored. Extending the agreement
without a documented compliance review risks eroding trust, exposes the county to legal challenges,
and makes enforcement of earlier obligations, especially time-sensitive ones, much harder.
I urge the County to require a formal compliance determination before any extension is granted. Any
extension should be conditioned on verified fulfillment of all obligations, with no forgiveness of
unmet commitments and clear expectations for remaining responsibilities.

I added a comment specifically about the Suncadia's requirement to provide certain infrastructure

have concerns that those commitments have not been completed, and should be specifically
addressed in any extension to the development plan.

The Applicant acknowledges the comment regarding wastewater and sewer infrastructure. Wastewater and sewer facilities
serving the project have been constructed, operated, and regulated in accordance with approved permits and applicable
standards. Suncadia completed construction of the sewage treatment plant in Cle Elum in 2005 and that plant is operated by
the City of Cle Elum. That plant and the associated piping mains were sized to accommodate Suncadia at full build out. New
infrastructure is constructed for new neighborhoods in accordance with applicable code. Compliance with Development
Agreement infrastructure obligations is documented through County approvals and utility agreements. No outstanding
wastewater infrastructure obligations remain as conditions to the proposed extension.
Blaine (2) Jan 20, 2026
I support responsible and well-planned development. However, I believe it is premature to extend the
agreement when it appears the developer has not demonstrated full compliance with its existing
obligations. (I am particularly concerned about Suncadia's requirement to provide improvements to
the waste water and sewage infrastructure, and believe that the rapid pace of development has
outpaced their required improvements. There are areas throughout the resort that smell or sewage
which could indicate that the existing system is already over capacity.)

1. There is a common theme in the submitted comments requesting verification of compliance with the existing agreement. Suncadia has been, and will continue to be, fully committed to meeting all obligations under the agreement. Importantly, the Development Agreement extension does not relieve Suncadia of any commitments
or responsibilities contained therein. Several commitments were fulfilled in the early years of the development (e.g. installation of a stoplight in Cle Elum). However, many requirements are ongoing in nature and are verified through land use applications and plat approvals for each new phase of Suncadia. Please note that the
comment letters submitted on this topic were largely similar in content. The public comment excerpt provided below is intended only as a brief summary to facilitate a consolidated response.

Rex Bloesser Jan 25, 2026
I believe it is premature to extend the agreement when the developer has not demonstrated full
compliance with its existing, binding obligations. The Development Agreement contains numerous
commitments related to infrastructure delivery, public amenities, environmental mitigation, and cost
allocation. These provisions were intended to protect residents, the public, and the County. To date,
it is unclear whether all such obligations have been fully satisfied or independently verified.
Examples include:
1. The basic supervision of builder contractors is not enforcing covered loads, parking, noise, and
speed limits for developer contractors.
2. The developer has been shown to participate in a scheme that charges existing
homeowners for pure development costs through an inclusive billing arrangement with the Suncadia
water company.
3. The developer continues to control the HOA board and is charging the homeowners’ HOA for
builder trash removal and other builder costs.
4. The developer owes the HOA $2.8 million, plus interest, related to a prior overcharge. The
developer continues to ignore this obligation, and it now appears litigation will be required.
5. Ignoring the National Forest Fire Safety guidelines for trimming and setbacks
Please consider the following:
1. If an extension is granted, please immediately request that the HOA board be
restructured as follows: one set of board seats reserved for the builder and one set of
four seats reserved for homeowners, to be filled through open elections.
2. Before any extension, it should be expressly conditioned on independent verification of
compliance, with no waiver of prior noncompliance, and with clear enforcement
mechanisms for any remaining obligations. This approach prioritizes accountability,
protects the public interest, and maintains public trust in the development approval
process.

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.
Responses below are provided for clarification, although most of these are unrelated to the Development Agreement.
1. Suncadia includes provisions in contracts for developer activity regarding builder "rules" that must be followed. Suncadia
enforces these through active construction management and has engaged with the County on this topic through plat
applications. Home builders follow rules outlined in the Design Review Guidelines and are enforced by the Suncadia Design
Review Committee (DRC).
2. Suncadia sold the water and sewer utility companies to a private utility operator in 2019. The sale was approved by the
Washington Utilities and Transportation Commission (UTC). Water rates are also reviewed and approved by the UTC. In 2024,
Suncadia negotiated an agreement with the private utility operator to impose a "connection fee" for new lot connections to
ensure that existing homeowners do not cover the cost of new lot infrastructure. Suncadia does not in any capacity have an
"inclusive billing arrangement" with the water company.
3. Suncadia, as the declarant, has control of the HOA boards as allowed under the governing documents until a future date
when 90% of the community is built out. Costs for trash removal are borne by homeowners/builders building new homes.
Suncadia, through the Suncadia Community Council, manages the waste disposal as a service.
4. Suncadia is working through a historic overbilling issue with the HOA and is very actively involved with finding resolution
through a full refund. This is unrelated to the Development Agreement.
5. It is not clear what this comment is referring to. Suncadia has a Land Stewardship Plan in place that directs forest
management. Suncadia contracts with a professional forester on forest treatment. Since 2014, Suncadia has treated over
1,000 acres of open space for fire resiliency. In 2026, Suncadia plans to treat over 200 acres for fire resiliency. Suncadia is also
working on a program that individual homeowners can adopt to make their home wildfire ready.

I am a Suncadia homeowner who supports responsible development. 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.

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.

The governing body most issues is the Home Owners Association (HOA). The Developer holds
controlling interest until 90% of the development is sold, the home owners have a voice but no
control. The Developer makes many decisions based on their financial gain; perhaps not in the best
interest of the home owners.
One such decision was the sale of the water company. Originally, the water company was owned and
managed by the Developer. It has since been sold. It was billed to the property owners and the
Utility Commission as a no cost change. Since the sale, there has been a deliberate cost shift of future
water system development costs for future homes, from developer to the water consumers (current
home owners) resulting in increases to our water rates. The water system is not fully developed to
cover the future growth and will need further expansion. I assume this will drive additional cost
increases to my water bill.
I'm not apposed to continued development, I just want the developer held to the original agreements
and the homeowners have a equal vote in costs that will be paid by the HOA.

The comment regarding the utility companies is not related to the Development Agreement. Suncadia sold the water and

Transportation Commission (UTC). Water rates are also reviewed and approved by the UTC. In 2024, Suncadia negotiated an
agreement with the private utility operator to impose a "connection fee" for new lot connections to ensure that existing
homeowners do not cover the cost of new lot infrastructure.

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.
The following are specific examples of how many Suncadia homeowners believe Suncadia
management is falling short of its legal commitment to homeowners.
1) In November 2023 an audit revealed that Suncadia overcharged us for security and patrols by $2.8
million dollars over the prior 8 years. With interest it amounts to circa $3.3 million owed to
homeowners immediately. Suncadia has dragged its feet about repayment and seems to be hoping
Washington’s 3-year statute of limitations on the matter will expire this fall without repayment.
2) We homeowners pay for forestry management, particularly for fire-wising. In the name of
“forestry management” though, Suncadia uses our funds to clear land it’s opening for selling lots in its
new neighborhoods.
3) We homeowners pay for construction waste disposal but only builders and contractors can access
it; a violation of the Developer Agreement Suncadia’s asking Kittitas to extend.
4) As the number of residents grow, we are entitled to increase the number of
Homeowners on the Board that makes financial decisions. That number has not grown as the
Developer Agreement specifies.
5) Suncadia shifted sewer responsibilities through the sale of its water and sewers utility,
contradicting the Developer Agreement. As a result, dollars that were collected as part of our lot
purchases were not carried forward to the new utility and our monthly water bills have consequently
almost doubled.

The Applicant acknowledges the concerns raised regarding financial and governance matters. HOA governance, utility billing,
and operational matters are administered pursuant to governing documents and applicable law and are separate from the
Development Agreement extension request.
The additional comments are not related to the Development Agreement, but the Applicant provides the following response:
1) Suncadia is working through a historic overbilling issue with the HOA and is very actively involved with finding resolution
through a full refund.
2) Suncadia has a Land Stewardship Plan in place that directs forest management. Suncadia contracts with a professional
forester on forest treatment. Since 2014, Suncadia has treated over 1,000 acres of open space for fire resiliency. In 2026,
Suncadia plans to treat over 200 acres for fire resiliency. Suncadia is also working on a program that individual homeowners
can adopt to make their home wildfire ready. Suncadia does not use HOA funds to clear lots for new development - the funds
are used to treat forest consistent with the Land Stewardship Plan for the benefit of all of Suncadia.
3) Costs for trash removal are borne by homeowners/builders building new homes. Suncadia, through the Suncadia
Community Council, manages the waste disposal as a service.
4) Suncadia, as the declarant, has control of the HOA boards as allowed under the governing documents until a future date
when 90% of the community is built out.
5) 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. Utility costs have risen over the past several years consistent with rising costs in all areas - namely
labor costs, electricity costs, and materials costs.

I am not opposed to development, but I respectfully ask that the County review the existing
Development Agreement for applicability and compliance before approving any extension. Given the
age of the project, it is not clear from the public record which obligations have been completed,
which may have expired, and which may remain outstanding.
The developer controlled association has allowed irrigation and landscaping around
homesites that has been designated open space and is supposed to remain natural.
With the rate of water usage in the development now, it is difficult to see how the resort can support
the additional proposed development over the next 20 years. As proven by this year’s drought, water
is going to be scarce in the years to come.
At the HOA board meeting this week, the developer said that they had seen the
comments sent to the county from the owners and would be responding to those
questions about their compliance with the development agreement. Those responses should have
been submitted with their original filing and able to be reviewed by the public, not at the 11th hour.
This is exactly what we are requesting. A thoughtful, deliberate consideration of this development

The current Agreement includes obligations related to infrastructure phasing, public
amenities and access, environmental mitigation, and other performance commitments that were part
of the original approvals. Given the age and maturity of the project, it is not clear from the public
record which of these obligations have been completed, which may have expired by their own terms,
and which, if any, remain outstanding.
For the past three years the area has experienced reduced hydrological events, and the number of
developments besides Suncadia are on the rise. I am very concerned about the availability of water
going forward. The demographics of homeowners is changing with more people living here
permanently rather than vacation homes. This assumption should be reviewed for its impact on
water usage. Is Suncadia compliant with their water rights?
My other area of concern is open space. I have concerns with how this is calculated. My
understanding is that areas around the houses are counted as open space. The newer sections of
Suncadia appear to have bigger building envelopes than the original homes. I think that calculation
needs to be audited for compliance.
Also, why is the request for 15 more years? When you add that to the existing 5 years, that is
another 20 years. I think the extension should be for something less, maybe 10 more years. Granting
an extension without first establishing a clear, written record of compliance risks allowing unresolved
obligations to be the new standard. It becomes significantly harder to enforce earlier requirements,
particularly those tied to timing or early phases of development after the extension has been granted.
Since there are five years remaining I would like for the County to review and verify
compliance with the existing Development Agreement before considering any extension.

I believe it is premature to extend the agreement when it appears the developer has not
demonstrated full compliance with its existing obligations.

I am not opposed to development, but I respectfully ask that the County review the existing
Development Agreement for applicability and compliance before approving any extension. Given the
age of the project, it is not clear from the public record which obligations have been completed,
which may have expired, and which may remain outstanding.

I would request you not approve an extension at this time. My reasoning is I believe all long-term
developments should be required to pass a comprehensive, and preferably independent, review as to
whether or not they have complied with previous county and Suncadia covenants and requirements
before being allowed to continue to proceed.

Granting an extension without first establishing a clear, written record of compliance risks allowing
unresolved obligations to be assumed complete or superseded.

The Development Agreement includes important commitments related to infrastructure, public

As a homeowner at Suncadia, I believe the proposed extension should be denied unless and until the
developer demonstrates full compliance with the existing Development Agreement.
Unresolved obligations should not be carried forward through an extension. Doing so places the
burden on residents and the County.
I ask the County to require a documented compliance review identifying unmet obligations and
ensuring they are resolved prior to any extension decision.
Accountability is fundamental to responsible development

One of the biggest threats to the success and future of the MPR relates to water rights. We believe
in the future, absent a change in the permitted number of units, there is build significant potential for
the MPR to have insufficient water rights available to serve all residents

(water supply), B-20
(water rights) Water Rights Please refer to the separate letter regarding water rights: "2026-0130 Suncadia response letter water rights"

B-17, B-18, and B-19: Water Supply (previously discussed). These sections are of vital importance and
given the previous discussion should be carefully examined

B-43(a): During development of the last three plats, several of the developer’s construction vehicles
did not have the required operable fire extinguisher on board. The developer was notified and stated
an exception had been granted by the County Fire Marshal; however, the DA specifies three
individual entities must examine the request, not just the Fire Marshal B-43 (air quality) DA Conditions The applicant will ensure compliance during future plats and developments.

B-44: During the development of every plat since 2019, we have consistently observed trucks
transporting dusty materials without covered loads. While the developer may require, via contract or
other means, these truck drivers to cover their loads, there appears to be no enforcement B-44 (covered loads) DA Conditions
The applicant includes this condition as part of contracting and works to enforce. This is an ongoing commitment that the
applicant works to meet. Based on the commenter providing previous comment to the county on this topic, the Applicant set
up a complaint email for owners to submit complaints regarding this topic (or others). No complaints have been received.

C-12: Requires the County Public Works Director to review the MPR road system (and restrictive
gates) in conjunction with subdivision application. We believe a threshold or timeline should be
considered for removing the restrictive gate at Firehouse Road with an eye toward public safety. C-12 (transportation) DA Conditions
The Firehouse Road gate is not an official entrance to Suncadia as allowed under the DA and as such, is gated. As discussed
with the County, the gate can be opened for emergency egress should such emergency arise.

C-16(e): As the development nears conclusion, it would be helpful for the developer to address the
damage caused by the construction vehicles inside the MPR per this section such that they can plan
to repair them (Suncadia Trail, Swiftwater Drive) C-16 (e) (transportation) DA Conditions
Arterial roads within the MPR have worn over time due to many factors. Suncadia Trail and Swiftwater Drive are owned and
maintained by the Suncadia Community Council and that entity has reserve funds to repair these roads at the appropriate
time.

C-17: The 2025 Traffic Monitoring Reports contains several inconsistencies. Page 13 states “roadway
segments operate at LOS C or better in 2025” however the referenced chart clearly shows one road
segment operating at LOS “D”. To be fair, the same paragraph also states “These calculations include
some directions operating worse than LOS C”. More importantly, the entire report fails to address all
items in section (h) of C-17. Taken together, these issues suggest the Traffic Monitoring Report would
benefit from some refinement C-17 (transportation) DA Conditions The applicant completes yearly traffic monitoring and shares the data with the County.

C-30: To measure the effect of the MPR on public services, has the developer filed the proper reports
within the last five years as required in this section? C-30 (public services) DA Conditions Yes, all required reports have been submitted.

C-31: There does not appear to be a security force operating at the MPR. While a company provides
monitoring services, this does not appear to meet the DA’s requirement for “security.” C-31 (law enforcement) DA Conditions Suncadia has hired Allied Security to fulfill security patrol within the MPR.

C-48 / C-51: The requirement for a “solid waste management plan” includes establishing recycling
facilities. With the exception of cardboard, there is no recycling facility in the MPR. C-48, C-51 (utilities) DA Conditions
The applicant worked with Waste Management over the past 2 years to bring residential recycling to the MPR and that
recycling is now in place. Waste Management is unable to support commercial recycling.
