RE: South Range Crossing II Subdivision, Alder Ridge Apartments, and Sage Peak Apartments
Concurrent Construction Request
Please accept this letter as a request for concurrent construction, as outlined in section
38.270.030B.1.b.(2), of subdivision infrastructure and building improvements on Block 1 lot 1 &
Block 2 Lots 1-2 of the South Range Crossing II Subdivision as shown on the Preliminary Plat,
Civil Plans, and as shown on the Alder Ridge and Sage Peak Site Plan and Civil Plans.
As currently proposed South Range Crossing II consists of a stand-alone project with 3 lots
platted for development and 1 restricted lot. The construction of infrastructure for South Range
Crossing II will begin as soon as practical after engineering approvals have been obtained,
however it is likely that the infrastructure will be financially guaranteed and under an
Improvement Agreement to allow the recording of the Final Plat prior to construction
completion. This is to facilitate an expedited review and approval of the Graf St. Apartments
site plan, civils, and building plans.
To facilitate building construction on Block 2 Lots 1-2, concurrent construction of subdivision
infrastructure and Block 2 Lots 1-2 civils and building improvements is being requested. It is
likely that subdivision infrastructure construction will be underway prior to Alder Ridge and
Sage Peak building permit issuance however the Graf St. Apartments, LLC site plan is in
concurrent review with the plat and is anticipated to undertake construction of the subdivision
infrastructure in addition to the Alder Ridge and Sage Peak Apartments projects.
We understand the need for functional subdivision infrastructure to support construction
activities and will commit to a Concurrent Construction Plan. Subdivision streets will be
improved to a gravel surface and fire hydrants activated prior to vertical construction on the
residential lots. Access to the entire Subdivision will be closed to the public until Subdivision
infrastructure is complete. Subdivision infrastructure and park improvements will be completed
by the city prior to occupancy of any structure on the concurrent construction lots.
Prior to the Final Plat application, the concurrent construction request will be supported by the
following project specific conditions and standard conditions per UDC 38.270.30 D and
stipulated in the Subdivision Improvements Agreement.
1. The subdivision and concurrent construction site projects will be under control of a
single entity, with a single general contractor for both subdivision and site construction.
There will be no third-party builders until subdivision infrastructure is complete and
accepted by the city.
2. Subdivision infrastructure plans will be approved and financially guaranteed prior to the
Final Plat and any concurrent construction building permit issuance.
3. Subdivision streets will be improved to gravel surfacing and fire hydrants will be
activated prior combustible vertical construction. Public access to the entire Subdivision
will be closed to the public until the subdivision infrastructure is complete. Subdivision
infrastructure and park improvements (subdivision will pay fee in lieu only) will be
approved prior to the city issuing occupancy of any structure on the concurrent
construction lots.
4. We will provide insurance, risk acknowledgement, and indemnification in a form
acceptable to the city prior to Final Plat and/or Building Permit issuance.
DevCo Development and Providence Development both understand the complexity of the
concurrent construction requirements and working through the requirements throughout civil
infrastructure review(s). Please let us know if there is anything more required at this time to
request concurrent construction for the subdivision, site plan, and residential building
construction.
Sincerely,
Graf St. Apartments, LLC.
