RE: Letter of Intent-Westridge Annexation
Dear Town Board Members:
I welcome the opportunity to present for your consideration the attached application for the
annexation of the Westridge project into the Town of Mead, Colorado. The Westridge project is
located on the Southwest corner of Interstate 25 and County Road 34 and includes approximately
285.6 acres of land.
The Westridge project proposes a new commercial and residential gateway to the Town of Mead.
We are looking forward to working with the Town of Mead to craft the style and character of this
project so that it will be a successful addition to the Town that can be viewed and experienced
with pride.
Proposed Land Uses
The proposed master plan is intended to be generally consistent with the Town of Mead
comprehensive land use plan while adapting to the unique setting of the site at the intersection of
the interstate and a main access way to the Town of Mead. An important component of the
project is the balance between realizing the commercial and residential potential of this project
while being sensitive to the existing residential land uses to the south and north as well as the
proposed residential land uses to the west.
The proposed land use includes approximately 62.2 acres of estate residential that will be
generally compatible to the existing estate residential to the south, 64.0 acres of medium density
residential that will be generally compatible to the land uses to the west. The central part of the
proposed project is a 77.8 acres of mixed use commercial and residential as the concept of
residential over commercial is a viable land use for this project and can create a dynamic lifestyle
choice for future residents. The proposed plan also includes 80.0 acres of commercial that is
generally located on the eastern portion of the site. The location of the commercial is intended to
take advantage of the intersection of Welker Avenue (County Road 34) and Interstate 25. The
plan includes a landscape buffer (1.6 acres) between this proposed commercial and the estate
residential to the south.

Traffic and Access
The proposed traffic and access plan for the Westridge project is intended to relate to the
surrounding roads and land uses. We have proposed to connect to existing and proposed
intersections where practical. Based upon our preliminary transportation review we are not
expecting that this project will have an adverse impact on the existing Town of Mead or
surrounding projects, however the impacts of this project will be evaluated and addressed as it
moves through the review process and more detailed transportation studies are done.
Landscaping and Open Space
Landscaping and Open Space is expected to be an important component of this project. Key
components of the landscape and open space plans will include streetscape design along Welker
Avenue, County Road 7, and 1-25, this streetscape and landscaping will become the face of the
project and will be very important regarding the image and success of the project. A landscape
and open space buffer is proposed to mitigate the possible impacts between the commercial
components of this project and the existing estate residential to the south. The concept of the
mixed use commercial and residential would include the creation of a central park/open space
that will form the heart of this part of the project. The intention is to create a central gathering
space that includes landscape and open space that becomes an exciting addition to the project
and to the Town of Mead.
Buildings and Architecture
We look forward to working with the Town of Mead to build this community which will be
appropriate to the scale and character of the Town of Mead.

Water and Sewer Service
It is our understanding, based upon preliminary discussions with the Town of Mead and the Little
Thompson Water District, that water and sewer service is near the site and accessible to the site.
It is also our understanding that there is adequate capacity for the project.
Metropolitan District
For a project of the size and scope of the proposed Westridge project a Metropolitan District can
be an important financing tool as well as assisting in the operations and maintenance of
components and amenities. It is anticipated that the Westridge proposal will include a request for
the creation of a Westridge Metropolitan District. The Districts responsiblities may include
financing and operations/maintenance of public infrastructure which may include, but not limited
to, public streets, sidewalks, water lines, sewer lines, stormwater facilities, parks, open spaces,
trails, signage, water features, and recreation facilities.
In closing, Rocky Mountain Fuel Inc. is committed in working with the Board of Trustees, Planning
Commission and the Town of Mead staff to develop a master planned community that Mead
citizens will welcome. We would greatly appreciate support of this application. Please feel free to
contact me with any questions and requests for additional information
