Exhibit B
TO: Mr. David Soto, Town of Prosper
FROM: Tradition Homes - Zach Schneider (President/CEO) & Bill Darling (Chairman)
DATE: March 1, 2023
SUBJECT: Windsong Ranch Phase 7F/7G — Modern Farmhouse (Type A & B Courtyard Lots)
Purpose
The purpose of this memorandum is to request the Town of Prosper's support regarding exterior building
materials for Type A and Type B Courtyard Lots in Phases 7F and 7G of Windsong Ranch. This request is
regarding Phases 7F and 7G only.
More specifically, Tellus and Tradition both desire to build Modern Farmhouse elevations in this highly
desirable section of Windsong Ranch with the goal of adding architectural diversity to the community.
Overview
Tradition Homes was founded in 2019 by Zach Schneider and father-in-law Bill Darling. Tradition is a luxury
homebuilder operating in several locations within Prosper and Prosper ISD. Tradition's current average
home price is approximately $11M. Tellus and Tradition Homes are working together on Phases 7F and
7G of Windsong Ranch. Tradition Homes is the only builder in Phase 7F and 7G.
• Phase 7F. This phase was developed in 2022. Tradition Homes is actively building luxury patio
homes in Phase 7F.
• Phase 7G. Development activities in Phase 7G will commence soon. Phase 7G lots are anticipated
to be delivered in late 2023.

PD-40 & Development Agreement
Phases 7F and 7G of Windsong Ranch include Type A and Type B lots. This section of Windsong Ranch is
being constructed under the Courtyard Home Option. Tellus and Tradition Homes would like to amend
PD-40 and amend the Development Agreement to allow Tradition Homes to build their Modern
Farmhouse ("E" Elevations) in Phases 7F and 7G.
PD-40 currently includes language that allows Modern Farmhouse elevations to be constructed on Type
C, Type D, and Type F lots. We are requesting this language applied to Type A and Type B Courtyard Homes.
Tradition Homes — Luxu Patio Homes
Tradition Homes is currently building their Luxury Patio Homes in Windsong Ranch (Prosper, TX) and
Mustang Lakes (Celina, TX). This product is very similar to the product our family has designed and built
over the years in the Dallas and Houston markets. A very important distinction for our Luxury Patios
compared to other builders is we serve a very affluent buyer.
Luxury Patio Homes -- Buyer Profile
Below are things this Buyer desires in a Luxury Patio Home:
• They want a minimum 2,600 SF - 3,300 SF on one floor.
■ They want their home to be highly amenitized, resembling what they have become accustom to
in their existing home.
• They want an enclave of +/-100 homes with no through streets. This allows them the community
they want with their peers and does not allow for teenage or family drivers through their
neighborhood.
• They have shown that they want high end MPC's like Windsong Ranch. There is no need for
additional amenities because they like interacting with the overall community which often
includes their children and grandchildren.
• They can lock up and go out of town ("lock and leave") due to smaller yards and minimal
maintenance.
Conclusion
Tradition Homes is focused to building distinctive homes in distinctive master planned communities. We
are grateful to be a builder in Windsong Ranch and a builder in the Town of Prosper. We believe these
Modern Farmhouse Elevations will add architectural diversity to the streetscape and enhance this area of
the community. Tradition Homes is willing to provide physical addresses to actual homes that represent
this architectural style upon request (addresses are not included in this memorandum for the safety and
privacy of our customers). Attached to this memorandum are several architectural renderings of our
Modern Farmhouse Elevations.
EXHIBIT "C"
Development Standards for Windsong Ranch Town of Prosper. Texas
Conformance with the Town's Zoning Ordinance and Subdivision Ordinance: Except as
otherwise set forth in these Development Standards, the regulations of the Town's Zoning
Ordinance (Ordinance No. 05-20 as it currently exists or may be amended) and
Subdivision Ordinance (as it currently exists or may be amended) shall apply.
Arnenily Pro ram
a. General. As a master planned community, Windsong Ranch will have a
programmed and qualitatively controlled system of amenities throughout. These
amenities combine to create an overall sense of place that would be difficult to
achieve when considered as independent elements within smaller developments.
The community amenities that are addressed within these Development Standards
are:
• Primary Community Entries
• Secondary Community Entries
Neighborhood Entries
• Thoroughfare Landscape Buffers
• Community Park
• Community Amenity Center
Floodplain / Greenway Parks
• Neighborhood Parks
• Pocket Parks
b. Primary Community Entries
a. Major points of entry into Windsong Ranch (minimum two locations,
including at least one entry along U.S. 380) will be defined with a
combination of monument signage, landscape and lighting to create a
sense of arrival commensurate in scale and character with a 2,120.54 acre
master planned community (see representative examples below). These
entries will include:
• Community name / logo incorporated into monument signage
element, to be constructed of masonry or similar material;
• Enhanced landscape, including seasonal color, shrubs, groundcover,
perennials and unique combinations of both canopy and ornamental
trees;
• Enhanced lighting on the monument / signage and the unique
aspects of the landscape;
■ Water will be considered as an accent feature if land and topography
permit, and if compatible with the overall physical design theme for
the community.
b. Primary entries will be developed to incorporate both sides of the entry
roadway when both are contained within Windsong Ranch, and will also
include enhancements to the median in the immediate area (where / if
applicable). Landscape easements will be provided to ensure adequate
space to provide for visibility triangle(s) and adequate development of entry
design.
n- i�elT A G E
G. Secondary Cornmunity Entries
Secondary community entries will be similar to primary community
entries in their use of compatible building and landscape materials, but will
be smaller in scale and land area. They will occur at the outside edges of
Windsong Ranch, at the entries for either arterials or collectors into the
community. It is anticipated that a minimum of three secondary entries will
be provided for the community, primarily along Teel Parkway (see
representative examples below). Secondary community entries will include
the following elements, scaled slightly smaller than the primary entries:
• Community name / logo incorporated into monument signage element,
to be constructed of masonry or similar material;
• Enhanced landscape, including seasonal color, shrubs, groundcover,
perennials and unique combinations of both canopy and ornamental
trees;
• Enhanced lighting on the monument / signage and the unique aspects
of the landscape;
• Center median to allow for more landscape density and also provide
alternative location for neighborhood identification and way -finding
graphics;
• Landscape easements where required to accommodate enhanced

Neighborhood Entries. Internal to Windsong Ranch and along both
arterials and collectors, points of intersection will be enhanced to denote
entries into individual 'villages' or neighborhoods. These entries will
resemble primary and secondary entries in their use of materials and
landscape, but will also incorporate village or neighborhood names and will
contribute to a unique, community -wide system of visual way finding.
Thoroughfare Landscape Buffers (Arterial and Collector Roads), - 25'Min.).
Thoroughfares will provide a continuity of design from primary and secondary
points of community entry throughout the entirety of Windsong Ranch. These
thoroughfares and the adjacent landscape buffers are intended to include the
following:
Screen walls composed primarily of ornamental metal fence with
living screen or stone or stone veneer (allowing brick accent), ONLY
if the Town determines that mitigating circumstances (land area /
depth, topography, etc) will not allow natural landscape to buffer
adjacent land uses (no builder fencing allowed);
Enhanced grading / berms combined with landscape (grass, trees,
accent shrubs and groundcover at entry points) to provide design
continuity and buffer adjacent land uses;
Street tree system throughout (formal and/or informal in arrangement
— design to be determined), to visually identify the hierarchy of
streets and neighborhoods. A variety of tree species will be
provided, including canopy / shade and smaller flowering,
ornamentals of a minimum 3 inch caliper for every 30 lineal feet
which with requested approval by the Town at the time of submission
of a preliminary plat may be grouped and in no case shall there be
less than the total number of street trees as required by this
subsection;
Continuous 6' sidewalks on both sides of the thoroughfare (sidewalks
interior to Residential may be 5');
Integrated neighborhood / `village' entries at points of intersection.
e. Community Park Windsong Ranch will include one community park (of
approximately 50 acres) that shall be dedicated to the Town in accordance with
the Preannexation Agreement. Schedule for improvements and requirements for
maintenance are described in Section 4 of the Development Standards. It is
intended that this park include sports and athletic facilities, passive and natural
spaces and associated parking - all of a scope and type to be determined in
coordination with Town staff. Following are parameters of design intended for this
facility:
■ Location will be along one of the open space / greenway parks in
order to facilitate pedestrian connectivity to the neighborhoods;
Facility design will utilize materials (masonry, pavements, landscape,
lighting) that are compatible with other common area improvements
within the Windsong Ranch community;
Specific facilities to be determined in coordination with Town staff,
but may include some combination of the following:
✓ 8' wide hike and bike trails
✓ Softball / Baseball field(s) (lighted);
✓ Soccer field(s) (lighted);
✓ Football field(s)
✓ Multipurpose field(s)
✓ Shade pavilion(s);
✓ Parking;
✓ Trailhead connections to adjacent floodplain / greenway parks;

(developed) areas.
Community Amenity Center
a. At least one Community Amenity Center shall be developed within
Windsong Ranch, providing a range of more active, family oriented
activities in a 'resort' style environment (see representative examples
above). This facility will be HOA maintained and provide the "centerpiece"
recreational amenity for the entire community. Like the community park,
this facility is intended to be located along the floodplain / greenway parks
system to accommodate pedestrian and bicycle access from the
neighborhoods of Windsong Ranch.
A. A Community Amenity Center will be completed along with the
initial phase of residential development, within the Single -
Family Residential Tract.
B. Three (3) additional Neighborhood Amenity Centers will be built
upon completion of each successive phase of residential
development, each phase to include approximately 750 homes,
within the Single -Family Residential tract.
b. The intended program for the Community Amenity Center facility shall
include multiple elements from the following list:
• Active adult and children's pools;
• Water slides and water play features;
• Paved and turf chaise areas;
• Community building, with interior and exterior spaces programmed
for resident and HOA uses, including possible inclusion of a kitchen,
community room, meeting room(s), fitness room, and storage
area(s);
• Restrooms (in the community building and possibly additionally at the
pool area(s);

C. Floodylain 1 Greenway Parks
A. Windsong Ranch includes over 550 acres of flood plain
corridors through the property. Significant portions of these
corridors are rich in native flora and fauna, and are intended to
be preserved in a natural condition, with only minimal impact to
allow hike / bike trail linkages. Other areas are more open and
less valuable as a native resource, and these areas may be
developed to include a golf course or ponds and fountains that
contribute to the overall storm drainage system and provide
enhanced value to the community. All of these corridors shall
be interconnected with a series of paths and trails, with an
overall hike / bike trail system throughout. Following are the key
components of this system of open space through the
community:
• Master hike / bike trail — minimum 8' in width — concrete or other
material approved by the Town — linking all neighborhoods, schools
and amenities;
• Secondary paths and trails — minimum 8' in width — concrete or 'soft'
surface (decomposed granite, crushed fines) is permitted for HOA
maintained trails— providing secondary linkages and `spur'
connections to the hike / bike trail system;
• Native preservation areas in locations of most desirable existing
vegetation, including wetland, upland and forested environments;
• Trailhead locations at community amenity sites and at schools, to
include trail maps, bike racks, and site furnishings (trash, seating);
■ Ponds and water features in open areas where impacts to existing
vegetation will not be an issue and storm drainage requirements can
be enhanced — ponds to include predominantly native, soft edges,
safety shelves, water circulation / aeration to ensure water quality.
Neighborhood Parks
A. Windsong Ranch will include a minimum of three, 7.5 acre
(each) neighborhood parks, distributed throughout the
community in areas that are linked by the floodplain / greenway
parks system and that contribute to ensuring a maximum'/4 mile
walk from any neighborhood to a park or open space amenity.
Additional requirements for schedule of completion for these
facilities, as well as maintenance, can be found in Section 4 of
the Development Standards.
B. Neighborhood parks shall be designed as a complementary
component of the Windsong Ranch amenities program,
including consideration of alternative uses, and the use of
compatible materials (hardscape, landscape and, if included,
lighting). These parks are to be integrated within the open
space system as well as the neighborhoods that they serve.
Neighborhood parks may include features and elements from
the following list of amenities;
• Open play fields (non -lit);
• Sport courts;
• Covered pavilion or shade structure;
• Children's playgrounds segregated by age groups (i.e. 2-5
and 5-12);
• Parking for +/- 10 spaces;
• Grading around perimeter to provide safety for playfields
and street frontages;
• 8' sidewalks around site linking facilities and providing
connections to adjacent floodplain / greenway parks;
• Town's Park signage approved by the Parks Board
consistent with community theme.
e. Pocket Parks Additional components of the Windsong Ranch amenities
program are smaller pocket parks within individual neighborhoods. These
parks will be an HOA maintained component of the open space system,
and allow for:
• Providing valuable open space in adjacency to smaller
homes;
■ integration of existing tree rows and other natural features
that warrant preservation;
• ensuring one -quarter mile resident walks to a component of
the open space system;
• additional passive and moderately active recreational
opportunities, including:
✓ open play areas;
✓ natural interpretive areas;
✓ neighborhood playgrounds;
✓ children's water play area;
✓ small neighborhood gathering spaces.

3. Mixed -Use Tract
a. Definition: The term 'Mixed -Use' as applied to the Windsong Ranch Development
shall include residential and non-residential land uses integrated vertically or
horizontally along the property facing U.S. Highway 380 in a walkable, vibrant
market driven neighborhood, giving residents the opportunity to live, work and
shop in the same community. The architecture of the mixed -use portion of the
development will blend with the surrounding residential neighborhood's style. Non-
residential uses include retail, restaurants and office. Retail uses are primarily
intended to supply the community with everyday convenience goods and services
and shall occur on the ground level of stand alone or integrated buildings. Office
shall include neighborhood service oriented professional, financial, and medical
uses and may occupy ground and/ or upper level building space. Residential land
uses are intended to supply attached housing product helping act as a buffer
between the more intense retail and office uses along U.S. Highway 380 and the
less intense suburban single-family residential product to the north. Principal uses
may include town homes and multi -family (condominiums, live/ work loft
residential, and luxury apartments). However, it is acknowledged that all or a
portion designated as the Mixed Use Tract may develop solely for retail or office
uses. It is intended in these standards to provide the flexibility to develop either a
multiple use project or traditional retail development.
b. Alternative Development Standards. Property within the Mixed Use Tract may
be developed solely for retail uses. The Mixed Use Tract development standards
provide two sets of standards that allow for a pedestrian -oriented multiple use
development (Section 3.c.) or, in the alternative, traditional retail development
(Section 3.d.).
C. Mixed -Use Development Standards (pedestrian -oriented): A maximum of 250
acres of mixed -use development is permitted on the Properties generally located
between U.S. Highway 380 and the collector street (see Exhibit "D"). Development
standards for a mixed -use development for this area within the development are
described below.
a. Permitted Uses. The following uses are permitted within the "Mixed Use"
area: Uses followed by an S are permitted by Specific Use Permit. Uses
followed by a C are permitted subject to conditional development
standards. Conditional development standards are set forth in Chapter 3,
Section 1 of the Town's Zoning Ordinance.

5. General Requirements for the Windsong Ranch.
a. Amenities: The intent of these development standards regarding the provision of
amenities is for an integration of built and natural elements working together as a
system that provides for the active and passive recreational needs of the Windsong
Ranch community specifically and of the Town of Prosper generally. The
distribution of natural beauty throughout the development, exemplified by mature
trees and areas of rolling topography, provides the opportunity for a community -
wide trail punctuated with nodes of built improvements such as pocket parks. In
this way, neighborhood is linked to neighborhood and the Windsong Ranch
community is linked to the Town.
To help preserve the open character of the Town of Prosper, it is the intent of
these development standards that a significant amount of natural open space,
particularly amid the floodplain and other sensitive land, be set aside to provide
additional open space for Windsong Ranch and for the Town. Design elements in
these areas should support non -programmed passive recreational activities such
as walking and picnicking.
b. Development Plan: A Conceptual Development Plan is hereby attached (Exhibit
"D") and made a part of these development standards. It establishes the most
general guidelines for the district by identifying the project boundaries, land use
types, approximate thoroughfare locations, R.O.W. dedication, roads and
illustrates the integration of these elements into a master plan for the whole district.
C. Maintenance of Facilities: The Developers shall establish a Homeowner's
Association ("HOX) for single family residential areas and a Property Owner's
Association ("POK) for mixed use areas, in which membership is mandatory for
each lot, and that will be responsible for operation and maintenance of all common
areas and/or common facilities contained within the area of the respective
residential or mixed use development or adjacent Right -of -Way ("ROW"). The HOA
or POA will be created with Phase 1 and each subsequent phase shall be annexed
into the association or a separate HOA/POA may be created for each respective
phase at the Developer's discretion. Upon completion of fifty percent (50%)
buildout of any phase of residential development and creation of the corresponding
HOA, the Developer shall provide that all HOA Boards have an advisory position
to be filled by individual homeowners residing within the corresponding phase.
Prior to transfer of the ownership to the HOA or POA, all specified facilities shall
be constructed by the Developer and approved by the Town. The Developer shall
provide the Town a mandatory HOA/POA agreement that will be recorded in the
deed records of Denton County, Texas. In lieu of the HOA and POA, the Town
and Developer may elect to create another entity to undertake the same
responsibilities of the HOA or POA.
6. Definitions. The definitions of the Town's Zoning Ordinance (as it currently exists or may
be amended) shall apply to these regulations except as otherwise amended herein. For
purposes of these Development Standards, the following terms shall have the following
meaning:
"Masonry" shall mean stone, stucco, brick, tile, concrete, glass or similar materials or any
