A L E T T E R T O P R A I R I E S TA R R E S I D E N T S dear - - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

dear PrairieStar residents: To help you visualize the completion of PrairieStar, we have prepared a presentation of the 5th Filing, and a video of the Village Center concept. This will be helpful in understanding the phased completion of the remaining residential lots, parks (including dog parks) and the open space and trail system as well as the conceptual plan for the PrairieStar Village Center. Some important facts to keep in mind while reviewing the pdf and the video are the following:

• 1. in sequencing the completion of PrairieStar, it is important to fjnish as the Phase Map represents,

as the physical order of the infrastructure and construction access allows us to fjnish and exit each construction portion of the project.

• 2. The Westview apartments are proposed as a modifjcation of the existing Westview at

PrairieStar approval. The current approval is for seven, 3-story buildings for a total of 84 units. The modifjcation would accomplish the following:

• Increase the unit count from 84 units to 108 +/- 2 units, depending upon fjnal engineering. This

creates the opportunity to economically add On-site Full-time Management which is an important addition to the Westview at PrairieStar apartments.

• Reduce the seven, 3-story buildings to six and add diversity with townhouse style apartment rentals.
• Allow two of the six, 3-story buildings to be moved to a topographical location that is lower than the

high ridge location of the previously approved seven buildings.

• Provide garages in some locations to disperse and integrate with the surface parking, with the

addition of townhome apartments.

• Allow the originally approved boundary to be moved back 20 feet from Berthoud Parkway, enabling

a 30 foot landscaped buffer as the identifying feature from Berthoud Parkway for Westview.

• 3. On the PrairieStar Village Center video, our intent is to portray a more accurate sense of

massing and architectural style that is consistent with our vision for PrairieStar’s completion. Building sizes and shapes will be modifjed as individual tenants are obtained for the Village Center, but the look and feel will remain consistent. All of the proposed lots and buildings within the Village Center will still be subject to a site review where details on loading, large truck deliveries, circulation, signage, and other important features will be specifjed. The main street buildings are envisioned as one-story buildings with an inviting and friendly feel. The colored concrete sections and the extended eaves over the sidewalks, including the overhead lighting and farmers market, is an accurate representation of our design expectations within the main street portion of the Village Center of PrairieStar.

• 4. At the present time, no anchor grocer or future tenants have been contracted to come to
• PrairieStar. We think it is important to establish the vision and the entitlement that we desire as

developers of PrairieStar before commencing the task of tenant fjnalization.

We hope you fjnd the presentations as exciting as we do. We hope you participate by letting the Town, the Planning Commission, and the Board of Trustees know your thoughts with a written comment. Thank you for your time and interest as we continue a phased completion of PrairieStar. Sincerely,

Summary

WHEN COMPLETED – 850 residential homes (all types) – 140,000 square feet

• f retail/commercial

– 5 neighborhood parks (8.67 acres)

Westview was platted in Filing 1 and approved for 84 units. As part of the Amended FdP 2020, approximately .8 acres will be added to the Westview site, bringing it to 108 units (+/– 2 units depending on fjnal engineering). The additional units make it feasible to have on-site management with an on-site offjce, located adjacent to the fjtness club. The Club pool and fjtness center are sized to accommodate additional memberships to the community and seasonal memberships will be available up to capacity.
