Why dedication of park by warranty deed? 3. What is the purpose of $5000 credit of land above dedication? The total impact fee represents a credit of $3700. 5. Blackard to double chip & Seal to county specification and maint for build -out duration. 7a. What issues exist with Danville? Remember what Folsom said about getting your dog in some -one else's fight. 7c. Is the height restriction something that Blackard is requesting? If so, then remove the limit of $12,000. 7e. Will this provide enough security for the well and storage equipment? 7g3. This seems to be ticky-tack. Have we required other developments to over -size the line? Have we provided reimbursement for others? How much money are we talking? 9. "Construction Manager" fee. Strike all of number 9. What they will be doing is helping themselves as well as the community as a whole. I find it utterly ridiculous that Blackard is seeking a fee of any type to help push this through. It states that Prosper will contract with Blackard to design and construct a municipal sewage treatment plant.... Has Blackard "designed and constructed" a plant of this nature before or have the hired someone to do this? What are we paying for? If it is the lobby to help push it through Austin then maybe our money is better spent by temporarily funding a lobbyists.... Just my two cents, this paragraph really over cooks my grits! 10b. Addressed above. 11 a. Do not wish to reimburse Blackard. If we have an obligation to pay then we need to pay the supplier directly. I do not want to get into a deal where we are needing to physical reimburse any developer. 11 b. Remove this section.

Subdivision is now called Whispering Farms. 1. They are ready to dedicate the park land and the well site to the city. The well site is 2 acres (previously specified only 1.5 acres) and the park land is approximately 42 acres. 14.3 acres is outside of the flood plain. He is requesting a credit of $5000 per acre (he originally wanted $10,000 for the flood plain land and $25,000 for the land outside of the flood plain). Of course this is only the land above and beyond the land that is already due to the city (about 13.85 acres) So, we are talking about a credit on the other 28 acres at 5000 per acre which totals around $140,750. We talked about this number, but I believe he wants more. They want the credit applied toward any impact fees due on the village land and buildings. Question - Does Danville water have any jurisdiction/meters in this area? Apparently there may be a water supply issue that we need to resolve according to Blackard. 2. He has now offered to pay $200,000 at the time of plat approval for phase I toward the road fees. They would like to pay the balance of the road fee as plat against frontage with Phases II and III. The road fee would be used to Engineer CR 78 and CR 80 to final road standards. Then, the gravel portions of CR 78 and 80 would be chip and seal as a temporary fix until sufficient funds are available to put in concrete road sections. Is this similar to what is being done with Gentle Creek - kind of a pay as you go road fee? 3. They are asking us to waive all off -site water fees in lieu of land dedication for well and storage tank site. The per lot water impact fee to be paid at time of final plat approval for each phase. The cost of over sizing any internal water lines within the development to allow for tie-in of storage tank to Prosper water distribution system to be applied against water impact fees due to city. Of course, we still need to determine a solution to the sewage issue. Anything new? I spoke with Chuck Stuber on Sunday. He said the school board may not be interested in the school site. He said it was too small and too far into the subdivision. I tend to agree with him. 7 acres may not be enough for the school. I am still thinking the village and park sound like great 7/10/O1 J ideas, but they tend to be more of a subdivision amenity rather than something easily accessed by the community. They plan to have 15 to 20 units in the village. 4 or 5 will be built with phase I. 3 story maximum. He wants restricted uses similar to the Blue Star PD for all commercial and retail activities. He wants residential zoning to allow for granny flats up to 800 sq. ft.. They will need some time of flexible zoning requirements for the flag lots needed for the village with 10 feet of frontage. Village to have curb and gutter. They still want lay down curbs everywhere else and they will control the entrance cuts and culvert placement. They want residents on any size lot that back up to the bridle trails to have an outbuilding and stable for one horse. Overall density cap at 1.95 excluding village lots and commercial zoning areas. He wanted 50% masonry coverage, and I asked why. They want to be able to use Hardi-Plank. I suggested that we specify 50% masonry and 50% hardi-plank or 75 to 80% masonry as long as we define hardi-plank as a masonry product. That is about all for now. We can talk more tonight. Jeff "James Dunmire" <di unmire@icyennecom> on 07/06/2001 05:07:12 PM To: JWalker americorp com cc: Fax to: Subject: Re: Blackard Development Jeff, I am sorry that I did not catch you before your Lunch meeting. We have had some server problems today. The park land is part of the amenities that make up the uniqueness of the overall development. We are working with the county on their grants and may even be throwing in some cash for the construction of facilities there. I think that the council is not willing to pay them for any land above the amount required by the subdivision ordinance. We would be willing to forgive impact fees for the Well, Ground Storage 7/10/01 Page and Pumping site, but again as I think you alluded, not at a premium price per acre. I think that we can prorate the Street fees into phases, as we have done this at least once before. It also may end up that we have to go with a 'chip and sear initially, until our funds get a little more developed and more of the area is brought into the city. We would want to sell out the amount in the P.D. and the pro rations. Charles and I met with the representatives from Grace Presbytery on their land. They too are awfully proud of their land and have attached a large price tag to it. We are proceeding with negotiations regardless. I have also inquired about another possible tract. I have not heard from Bill Little as to all the details from Aqua Source, but I am to pick up the bid on a package plant and will review it tonight.

We propose a dedication of the 1.5 acres of land required for the water storage tank and two wells to the Town of Prosper. Terms for this dedication would be: 1. The Town of Prosper would provide water to all residents residing within the Municipal Utility District to be created that encompasses the Villages of Tuscany Development (please see attached Exhibit.) 2. This water would be provided at the same rate as is currently paid by Town of Prosper residents. 3. Future rate adjustments would only be in conjunction with town -wide rate adjustments. 4. A per meter fee of $350 to be paid to the Town of Prosper for each meter/residence as it is connected to the water supply system by the Builder/Contractor. 5. The Town of Prosper would resolve all water supply issues with the Danville Water Supply Corp resulting in no developer or additional builder paid fees to Danville or the Town of Prosper. 6. The water storage tank would be set 10-15 feet down in an excavated area that would still allow for gravity flow drainage on the site dedicated by the developer to the Town of Prosper. 7. The storage tank is to be set on -grade within this excavated area and painted a color suitable to the developer. 4 8. Town access to the water storage facility and well site, construction and permanent, will be restricted to CR122. 9. Berms, walls, and living screens consistent with those used to demarcate the Villages of Tuscany would be used to isolate the facility versus a perimeter chain link fence. 10. The land to be dedicated is located on the north-east corner OR the north-west of the development and the site has direct access to CR 122. 11. The Town of Prosper is responsible for the following costs: a. All off -site water line costs b. Upgrading electrical supply to three-phase, if needed 12. Access to three-phase power would be guaranteed with no cost reimbursement to the Town or other Authority to the MUD's package plant and/or lift station facility, if needed. 13. Single Loop water supply for the Villages of Tuscany Development Our desire is to incorporate these items into a global Developer's agreement with the Town of Prosper.
