This agreement shall include, but not be limited to, all streetscape improvements along Village Center Road and East Meadow Drive, public access to the plaza for pedestrians and Town sponsored events, which may include the establishment of an easement on the plaza and language in the covenants and declarations for owners of property in the project regarding the use of the plaza for special events, inclusion of the loading and delivery facility in the overall loading and delivery system, payment of traffic impact fees and credits given to offset fee, and details for funding public art. The Developer shall address the following conditions of approval prior to submitting a building permit application (a grading permit/excavation permit shall constitute a building permit); Ordinance No. 7, Series 2009 3 1. The Developer shall submit a final exterior building materials list, typical wall section, architectural specifications, and a complete color rendering for review and approval of the Design Review Board, prior to submittal of an application for a building permit. 2. The Developer shall submit a rooftop mechanical equipment plan for review and approval by the Design Review Board prior to the submittal of a building permit application. All rooftop mechanical equipment shall be incorporated into the overall design of the structure and enclosed and visually screened from public view. 3. The Developer shall receive all the required permits from the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) prior to submitting for a building permit. Failure to receive the appropriate permits to access the South Frontage Road per the Approved Development Plan will require the project to return through the special development district review process. 4. The Developer shall comply with the written final comments of the Town of Vail Public Works Department outlined in the memorandum from the Town of Vail Public Works Department, dated January 16, 2006, prior to submitting an application to the Town of Vail Community Department for the issuance of a building permit for this project. 5. The Developer shall submit a written letter agreeing to install a public safety radio communications system within the subterranean parking structure which meets the specifications of the Town of Vail Communications Center. The specifications and details of this system shall be submitted to staff for review and approval with the application for a building permit. 6. The Developer shall submit a fire and life safety plan for review and approval by the Town of Vail Fire Department in conjunction with the building permit submittal.

Since the usage of the commercial space is still in flux the Public Works Department will require that a new study be performed prior to the issuance of a full building permit to address the traffic generation created by the specific tenants that will lease the commercial/retail space within the project. This change may cause the trip generation to increase. The applicant shall be responsible for mitigating the number of net peak trip increases depicted in the revised study.

The Developer shall commence initial construction of the Crossroads improvements within three years from the time of its final approval at second reading of the ordinance establishing Special Development District No. 39, and continue diligently toward the completion of the project. If the developer does not begin and diligently work toward the completion of the special development district or any stage of the special development district within the time limits imposed, the approval of said special development district shall be void.
