professional office/office complexes, and limited manufacturing activities, including small-scale
production, distribution, and storage of goods. Support activities may also be permitted. Retail may be
permitted as an ancillary use within this land use category. Smaller medical uses such as dentist offices
and other outpatient clinics are also encouraged. All development within this land use shall be designed
to be within a landscaped setting and be free of hazardous or objectionable elements such as noise,
odor, dust, smoke, or glare. Such development should be operated entirely within enclosed structures

by the Eagle City Code, which shall comply with the Eagle City Code, as it exists at the time
such applications are made except as otherwise provided with this Agreement.
3.2 The Concept Plan (Exhibit B) represents the Owner's current concept for completion of the

concept may occur. If the City determines that any such changes require additional public
comment due to potential impacts on surrounding property or the community, a public hearing
shall be held on any proposed changes in the Concept Plan, notice shall be provided as may be
required by the City.
3.4 Owner shall submit a lot line adjustment application for the removal of the existing parcel line
that conflicts with the proposed buildings and their required setbacks. The lot line adjustment
shall be submitted for review and approval prior to the issuance of a zoning certificate or condo

3.6 Except for the limitations and allowances expressly set forth above and the other terms and
conditions of this Development Agreement, the Property can be developed and used consistent
with the Business Park (BP) zoning designation within Eagle City Code Section 8-2-3, effective
at the time a design review application or conditional use permit application (whatever the case
may be) is made for individual building use.
All uses marked with a "P" for permitted use under the BP zoning designation in the "Official
Schedule of District Regulations" in Eagle City Code Section 8-2-3 shall be considered permitted
uses, and all uses shown as "C" for conditional use under the BP zoning designation shall require
a conditional use permit.
