Wilson, it was great to meet you on site as well. Sorry that I have been out of toucfl. Quite a bit of travel in the last few weeks and just
catching up. We presented the storefront and plan to OJVis week. Attached is the storefront sheet that shows the locations of the
proposed sign age and awnings. Please advise of the process to get these three signs approved through your team and through the
city. The greens are shown for reference only. The colors will match Orvis' corporate colors.
Thanks!

sign for Orvis. I need information from you before I
Will Orvis agree to remove the sign facing the interstate once construction of the adjacent building occurs (No
questions asked and no request to relocate the sign)? Do they understand that this is technically a temporary
sign? Yes, when this particular sign permit is issued it can be identified as temporary to be removed when the
adjacent space is constructed.
What plans do you have in place to stop any further requests from adjacent tenants that might want to enjoy
the same privilege for the interstate-facing sign? We do have criteria to protect for these requests, it is " ...... a
tenant in excess of 5,000 square feet, and the company shall operate at least 100 stores nationally." We can
modify and beef this up any time you need us to. We are concerned about opening a "can of worms".

Gentlemen,
Great meeting with Chef John Folse and Chef Rick Tramonte today at Renaissance.
We have set a tentative date for a press conference to unveil the restaurant at the site on April 23, 2014.
Thanks for the invitation for tonight's meeting, however as a part of the plan to not divulge the name to the media, I will
not attend the meeting to make sure I avoid any questions regarding the name.
Thanks,

Madison County Journal just put the pressure to me. Michael Simmons wants to report the name of the Restaurant. I
certainly wish we had covered the name that went before ARB. If he thinks to get to one of those members, the name
could be leaked. I'm going to send them an email just to improve our odds.
Regardless, it is a good thing that we kept the name out.

Thanks very much for your recent efforts towards completion of our civil engineering, Section 404 Wetlands Permit and
FEMA Permit.
As outlined below from Marianne Bundren, counsel for Costco, I wanted to share the concern of the risk that we are
currently facing regarding the schedule of our project.
We need more frequent work sessions in order to avoid jeopardizing this project.

that they've discussed all of these with Andrew before but to date the information has not been provided. We
need this information to complete our analysis and to proceed with the estimating exercise to prepare the
required budgets. Dan and Jeff shared with me that the delay in receiving these materials has likely made it
impossible for us to obtain internal approvals in July and there are no meetings set for August.
Materials Needed (in order of priority):

1. All materials prepared for filing with FEMA and/or the Army Corps to address new floodplain/floodway and

APPLICATION
654
BEFORE THE MISSISSIPPI DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE

ALCOHOLIC BEVERAGE CONTROL DIVISION
APPLICATION FOR QUALIFIED RESORT STATUS

COMES NOW, the Mayor and Alderman of the City of Ridgeland, Mississippi and requests the
Mississippi Department of Revenue to grant a Qualified Resort Status to the Renaissance Mississippi
Retail and Art Development and adjacent property (the "Project"). The proposed qualified resort area is
attached hereto to as "Exhibit A", and located along Highland Colony Parkway and Steed Road,
Ridgeland, Mississippi, 39158. In support thereof, the City submits the following, to wit:
I.
The survey and legal description attached hereto as Exhibit "A" clearly indicate the specific area
under consideration for which the qualified resort area status designation is sought.
II.
The Project is located in the City of Ridgeland, Mississippi, along Interstate Highland Colony
Parkway and Steed Road. The Project consists of a Lifestyle Main Street concept, including spacious
green common areas for strolling and relaxing, beautiful water features throughout, sidewalk cafes and a
town center square hosting an on-going array of special events such as concerts and shows. The open-air
lifestyle center concept goes beyond shopping, dining and entertainment, relying heavily on the
architecture and amenities to create a new experience for the consumer. Hours of operation will be 7:00
am until 2:00 am. The qualified resort status would enable the Project to serve alcoholic beverages during
the hours of operation and for private events held from time to time. It would be an additional amenity
Ridgeland could offer and would be beneficial to Ridgeland, Madison County, and to the Metro area.
III.
Attached hereto as Exhibit "B" are endorsements from the Madison County Business League,
Madison County Economic Development Authority, and the Ridgeland Tourism Commission.
655
IV .
Attached hereto as Exhibit "C" is the assurance from the Police Chief of the City of Ridgeland,
Mississippi that he will insure that all Local Option Alcoholic Beverage Control Laws of the State of
Mississippi and the rules and regulations of the Alcoholic Beverage Division will be enforced.
v.
Attached hereto as Exhibit "0" is a Certified Copy of the Minutes of the Mayor and Alderman of
the City of Ridgeland, Mississippi approving the request for the Project for the application as a Qualified
Resort.
VI.
Attached hereto as Exhibit "E" is the Proof of Publication of the Notice of Application for
Qualified Resort Status for the Project. As ofthe date of filing this Application, no public comments
have been received by the City of Ridgeland, Mississippi.
NOW, THEREFORE, the Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Ridgeland, Mississippi, hereby
request the Mississippi Department of Revenue to grant the Project status as a Qualified Resort in the
State of Mississippi which will allow it to serve alcoholic beverages during the hours of operation.
The City asks for such other and further relief as may be reasonable under the premises.

Subject: Renaissance phase two landscape
Andrew,
I have been communicating with Bob Oertel regarding the modeling. I have provided photos of materials for his
understanding of product and color. As part of this, I sent imagery of some large Live Oaks. When these drawings were
first completed, large, specimen Live Oaks were specified, so that visitors would be under canopy, and that the view of
the fountain would be unobstructed.
I spoke to Hugh Hughes about this, and he fully understood this approach, and we spoke of problems that he has faced
with respect to landscape visibility obstructions and problems with tree canopies impact the flow of fountain jets.
Attached you find some specimen live oaks that could be brought to the site, and limbed up to 20- 25' height.
This would provide instant canopy for the areas for the walk that circles the space.
If, and I understand this may not happen, there are second level restaurants, the view to the fountain would not
be obstructed as the tree placement happens on the other side of the fountain.
The trees are+/- 45' in height and 30- 35' width.
The tree canopy from the second level restaurants would aid in visually closing off the phase two plaza from the
rest of the drive, and make the restaurants even more desirable space
The placement of the Live Oaks within the space are closer to the buildings, so a long view of the fountain space
is maintained.
679
I helped a colleague with having these trees used on a Lifestyle center in Atlanta called Avalon. The use of the trees in
impressive, but rather than putting together multiple trees to form a large canopy, the trees were used to provide
scale. The use ofthe trees in Renaissance would be far more impressive.
Please review, and let me know if you have any thoughts. I had previously shared these with Alan Grant.

Andrew,
I'm working on a host of good points about the Santa Claus project and need some information about traffic. If you
could get me some average daily traffic demands for the Santa Clause store, I think we could reasonably estimate the
traffic demands for the remaining square footage for the entire development. Unfortunately, I need this information
ASAP.
Thanks in advance!

Greg,
Thanks very much for the email regarding the 1000 foot limitations. We have experience from the initial Phase of
Renaissance and will certainly adhere to the height restrictions. Our architects, engineers and counsel have studied the
rules and implemented these rules in our initial conceptual plans.
Please call me if you have additional questions.

citizens. I haven't heard anything that has convinced me that a Costco should not come to
Ridgeland. Good luck and know you have my support. One thing I am convinced of is you have
Ridgeland's best interest at heart.

Matt,
As discussed here's the plan. I believe we could work in a by-pass lane thru the drive thru if we were allowed an
additional 5 feet on the sides and maybe 5-10 feet in the front. If there is an opportunity for a variance on the setbacks
we would like more info on that. We appreciate your time and feedback.

Question for you
Hi Alan,
I am on mission and I am not sure who to contact and I am hoping that you can point me in the right direction. I am an
avid user of the trails and so is my running group. I know that there are not any current plans to re-open the bathrooms
at the old craft center. Who would I need to talk to about having some porta potties put there until they are fixed? Is
this the Parkway's responsibility or the City or a combination?
I know there are some at what we refer to as the "gravel pit" but the craft center is a great starting place for many users
of the trails. With the weather changing many bikers runners and walkers are going to be out there and these restrooms
are needed.
Thanking you in advance for your help and any guidance that you can offer.

Reference:
City of Ridgeland Brownfields Assessment Grant
Dear Mayor McGee:

I support the application to the EPA by the City of Ridgeland for the purpose of
conducting environmental assessments on contaminated properties in the three target
areas (Southeast Ridgeland, the City Center Site, and the Highway 51 corridor). As you
well know, I have numerous available properties and developments in the City of
Ridgeland, several of which are in the vicinity of existing Brownfield sites.
The City is a leader in development and redevelopment initiatives that help developers
like me revitalize areas of our community through projects that provide economic
stimulus with jobs and homes for all types of families. Many of the jobs created lead to
not only high income housing purchases but also opportunities for low income families to
locate in the City. I appreciate your interest in redeveloping these areas of the City and
would like to remain an integral participant in the planning efforts. I feel that my years of
development and redevelopment experience can help me offer your team a good
perspective on how to bring projects to fruition.
If I can be of any service to you, please feel free to call me anytime.
Sincerely,
H.C "Buster" Bailey

This looks good to me. The last step in to have the Criteria approved by the City's Architectural Review Board (ARB). As
soon as you can get images together to illustrate the sign types, please provide 2 copies of the images and sign criteria
to Matt Dodd. If you can get this done right away, ARB meets tomorrow night; otherwise, you can target the December
14th ARB meeting for approval.
Also, the Mayor and I discussed the New York Life sign and feel that this sign can be permitted as a Halo-lit sign with an

RE: OAV Detention pond
Thanks Alderman Heard! Chris Ramsey's inspection on Monday did reveal the siltation issues as described. The majority
of the issues occur at the north-end of the pond, but there also appears to be an issue in the southwest corner of the
pond. The areas that are growing silt are out of the main stream flow of the water that makes its way from one end to
the other. This flow and buildup is much like that of a natural stream or river. Chris has instructed Jamie to strictly
enforce silt fence requirements in Township, although we technically have little-to-no jurisdiction. Obviously, we have
an interest due to downstream impacts, but the entire Township site is under the enforcement of a Large Construction
Permit administered by MDEQ. We find it to be better practice to address the enforcement of the issue with the
Permitted contractor, but if we reach any resistance, our only recourse is to notify MDEQ. We are on it.

Everyone:
I have talked to Buster, and here is the plan. First, you will notice that Buster is included in this email.
I do appreciate the way the grounds in general are being kept up around the lake. I also understand that a lot of the
siltation (make that close to 100%) is NOT coming from a Buster Bailey project. No doubt much is coming from work
being done in and around the Township (for this reason, I have collaterally asked Alan Hart to send his people out to
check on silt fencing, etc. in the construction sites underway in the Township). For this reason, I have copied this email
to Alan also.
Now, all that said. Buster agreed in a phone conversation with me to wait for a killing freeze, whereby the grass, weeds
will go inactive. Then the water will be drawn down. Then he will get equipment in there to remove the island that has
built up, along with any other appreciable high spots that have built up.
807
We will work with Buster closely as the project unfolds, and keep everyone up to speed. Don't hesitate to contact me if
you have immediate questions. Thanks. Ken.

Gentlemen,
These are pictures of the West end of the detention pond at Old Agency Village. As
you can see this end of the pond is filling up with run off silt and basically filling up the
end of the pond so much it has created an island. Great for the birds and other critters,
but an eyesore for our neighborhood,and will develop into a flood issue if not
addressed. I have previously brought this issue to the attention of the City numerous
times prior to this email. I believe Buster was informed about this, but nothing has
been done. I believe this West end needs to be dredged out so that we don't end up
with 1/2 foot deep pond that is becoming an eyesore.
I look forward to your response,
Thanks

Matt,
As discussed here's the plan. I believe we could work in a by-pass lane thru the drive thru if we were allowed an
additional 5 feet on the sides and maybe 5-10 feet in the front. If there is an opportunity for a variance on the setbacks
we would like more info on that. We appreciate your time and feedback.
Thank you.

That facility is owned and operated by the Natchez Trace folks. The only person I really know there is Greg Smith 662680-4004. He is the Landscape Architect for the Trace. It is doubtful he is the guy who will discuss your request, but it is
possible that he could steer you to the right person.

Dear Mayor McGee,
As a resident of Greenwood Plantation, I am VERY concerned about the possible location of a Costco on
the property south of the Natchez Trace between 1-55 and Highland Colony Parkway.
The amount and kind of traffic that will be generated by the addition of a big box store like Costco is NOT
what is needed to enhance our area. In addition, it has the potential of encouraging other commercial
operations nearby that are NOT the quality that we have come to expect in our area.
Please let me know what needs to be done to prevent a Costco from locating in this part of Ridgeland.
Sincerely,
Karen Bush

Dear Karen,
Thank you for all your effort, research and work in communicating
with these Supervisor's, Mayor and others. I for one, would sign a
petition to oppose these plans and after realizing that we are not
only talking about Costco but 10-12 other stores ofthe same type,
that is deeply concerning. Please share with us who to contact and
if there is a petition to sign. Do they have a time frame that we
need to work to beat?
I have seen the kind of traffic in New Orleans that Costco
generates. They have a huge area for gas as well as tremendous
parking. We are talking about hundreds of cars all the time and
since it is quite different and better in some ways than Sam's it will
draw people from all over. Sam's has two locations!
Getting onto Highland Colony as well as traveling up and down
Highland Colony may become a real trial. I urge you all to act as
Karen has suggested, right away and to make others in these
neighborhoods aware of this.
It will be like living off of Ridgewood Rd. near County Line Road
in Jackson. A very commercial retail feel, not a sophisticated
selective "One of a Kind" shopping experience we now have at the
Renaissance or further up the Highland Colony.

Dear All,
I have e-mailed and/or texted my opposition to Mayor Gene
McGee and Dinsmor residents Supervisor Gerald Steen and
Alderman Ken Heard. I have had replies from both of the latter.
From my conversations with elected officials as well as others, this
is what I have found:
832
"Formally," Costco is not being mentioned as the retail

operation to be located on the aforementioned
property. But it is Costco.
The developers of Renaissance applied for and received a

Tourism Grant from the state of Mississippi to add on to
Renaissance. The Grant application/agreement stated that
Renaissance would have to add 50 stores and 50,000 sq. ft.
(the 50,000 number, I am not certain of) to receive the
Grant. Unable to reach that goal, the developers were
allowed to amend the Grant (after the date for application
for the grant had expired) to include the property being
looked at by Costco.
Costco alone will not add enough stores to reach the

additional 50 required by the Grant, and Renaissance is
unable to attract the other 49, so, on the site around Costco,
there are plans for an additional 10-12 out parcels. They
will probably be the type of stores that you would normally
see locate around a "big box" store.
The proposed Lake Harbour I-55 flyover has no planned

exit onto the Interstate, only to Highland Colony South, so
the transport trucks, etc. headed to Costco et al will be
traveling through what is now the roundabout. Because the
roundabout cannot handle the kind of traffic that will result
in the Costco plans, a traffic light would be needed with a
right angle tum at the intersection of Old Agency and
Highland Colony.
Defore these plans can proceed, there must be a

commitment/votes in the affirmative by the Ridgeland
Alderman and Mayor.
Alderman D. I. Smith who lives in the Dinsmor

neighborhood may (or may not) be opposed to the Costco
plans.
Alderman Ken Heard, who also lives in the Dinsmor

neighborhood is opposed to the Costco plans.
There are 7 Ridgeland Alderman and the other 5 (other than

Smith and Heard) live on the east side ofl-55. They feel
that "money is green" regardless of the concern over our
area and will more than likely vote as Mayor Gene McGee
directs them.
Mayor Gene McGee is highly in favor of this project right

now. It is felt that he plans to run for another term, and if
enough pressure is brought to bear, he might change his
mind as well as those of some of the other 5 Alderman.
833
The time to act is NOW for the project is moving swiftly.

It has been in the works at the city level, but until recently,
the public was unaware. Now that the word is getting out,
opposition is building.
A petition with a large number of signatures (which

translate into votes for public officials) would be an
effective means of voicing our opposition.
The neighborhoods and residents of Greenwood Plantation,

Dinsmor, Windrush, Carlton Park, Canterbury, Hillview,
Bridgewater, the back of Bridgewater, those on Old
Agency Parkway, etc. should all be opposed to this
proposed development.
Greenwood Plantation is a small neighborhood, and alone, we

would be unable to fight this proposed development. However,
with the help of Dinsmor and the numerous other neighborhoods in
our area, I am hopeful that we can defeat it.

(News from your Greenwood Plantation
Neighborhood)
Note: The Greenwood Gazette was created to keep

from time to time--perhaps monthly, perhaps more
often, depending on how much news we have to
share! Please feel free to send in news that you feel
would be welcomed by the neighborhood to be
included in the Gazette.
Please do not forward this newsletter

to those who are not residents of Greenwood
Plantation.
As our mission states, in order to keep our

residents informed of what is happening in
and around Greenwood Plantation, some of
our residents have asked that we share the
following:
Some of you have heard that Costco is
looking at the property immediately south of
the Natchez Trace property, between I-55
and Highland Colony Parkway. One of our
residents has received a call from a Dinsmor
resident who is concerned about those
plans. According to the Dinsmor resident,
things are moving quickly for Costco to
build not far from our neighborhood.
Although unaware of any organized effort
by Dinsmor already underway, the
5
835
Dinsmor Homeowner's Association is

against the building of a Costco at the site
adjacent to Christ Life of the Highlands
Church, and is encouraging our
neighborhood to weigh in on the issue and
attempt to stop its construction. The one
hold-up, according to a Dinsmor resident, is
the reluctance by Christ Life Church of the
Highlands to sell their property.
Although the property between Highland
Colony and I-55 is zoned for
commercial use, there are now mostly office
buildings, churches, nursing homes, etc. on
the stretch of Highland Colony South from
the roundabout almost to I-220. A store the
size of Costco would increase traffic, bring
in large transport trucks, and encourage
other retailers (seeking a piece of the retail
action that Costco will bring in) to locate on
property between Highland Colony and
Brame Road. Coupled with the planned I-55
flyover of Lake Harbour Road, which has
some positives for a for our neighborhood,
the location of Costco nearby has
the potential to negatively change the
atmosphere of our neighborhood.

Proposed Amendment of Zoning Code
Andrew Mattiace's company, MHC Land, LLC, is approaching the time that it will sign a contract with the proposed
purchaser of the Santa site on Highland Colony Parkway. The Purchase and Sale Agreement will require that the seller
make representations about the zoning status of the property, including the fact that the property can be used for a
vehicle fueling facility. Since the Santa site is zoned C-2, the seller cannot make that representation without an
exception to explain that the property cannot be used for a vehicle fueling facility. Andrew indicated that the City is
proposing an amendment of the zoning code to resolve that matter. To make the exception in the Purchase and Sale
Agreement acceptable, the seller will need to provide an explanation about the proposed amendment. A copy of the
proposed amendment and a proposed schedule for its adoption would be helpful to keep the proposed transaction
moving. Can you provide a copy of the proposed amendment and information about the proposed schedule?

Yes. I will have something to you by the beginning of next week provided Andrew can offer me some specific
parameters of the project, which will assist me in shaping the 'draft' ordinance amendment. Information like use types
and square footages of each would be a good start. I would also ask for any wisdom regarding anything else that would
make this development unique to any other.
11
We also discussed the importance of making the uses Permitted Uses".

The quickest schedule can take this shape:
1. May 4th (Work Session)- Present the draft language to the Mayor and Board of Aldermen for consideration to
set a Public Hearing.
2. June 2"d (Board Meeting)- Conduct Public Hearing; Mayor and Board can consider adoption of the Amendment
3. June lih- If approved, Last day for an objector to file a Bill of Exceptions
4. July 1st -If approved, Amendment becomes effective.
Andrew should be able to weigh his risk management based on Mayor and Board reaction, public hearing participation,
etc.

Here is my proposed language. I would like your comments before I send to Santa Claus for review. Although you are
fully aware, it is important for me to mention that this language has not been approved by the Mayor and Board and will
be subject to a public hearing, if they decide to consider it.
Replace the Section 21 "Service Station" Definition with the following language: Service Station: Any area
of land, including the structure thereon, which is used primarily for the retail sale of gasoline, diesel fuel,
ethanol, oil, propane, other fuels, and/or the sale or installation of automobile accessories and may also include
incidental services such as facilities for lubricating, washing (either automatic or by hand), and cleaning, or
otherwise servicing automobiles and light trucks. This term does not include the painting or major repair of
vehicles.
1
848
Add to Section 21 Definitions the following definition: Large Master Planned Commercial
Development: Any large commercial development that contains at least one retail/wholesale occupant
exceeding 125,000 square feet of heated and cooled space for the indoor display and sale of goods, a site with a
minimum of 15 acres, access to an Arterial Street, and approved by the Mayor and Board of Aldermen which
may or may not include conditions. Large Master Planned Commercial Developments may include any of the
uses permitted in the underlying Zoning District as well as Service Stations; Banks, branch banks, drive-thru
ATM's, and other banking facilities; Food product and carry-out and delivery stores, laundry and dry cleaning
pickup stations; Fast Food Restaurant with drive-thru; Fast Casual Restaurant with drive-thru; Pharmacy with a
drive-thru; and outdoor display of goods in designated areas approved by the Mayor and Board of Aldermen not
exceeding 15,000 square feet.
This amendment exceeds the singular scope of Santa Claus, and it is designed to address additional uses at multiple
locations and future potential projects.

We recommend that the Mayor and Board of Aldermen approve the

above referenced site/architectural plans contingent upon approval of the
stated variances. The Community Development and Public Works
Departments have reviewed the above referenced site/architectural plans.
The site/architectural plans were reviewed to include but not limited to
the following: land use, open space, ingress, egress, building setbacks,
building area, building height, lot area, parking, drainage, traffic impact,
landscaping, and water and sewer utilities as established in the City of
Ridgeland Development Review Procedures.
The following list represents the requested variances:
1. The Applicant requests a Dimensional Variance for Building
Height to a maximum of Eight Stories for the Hotel, 200
Renaissance, and 300 Renaissance. (Reference Exhibit 'A')
2. The Applicant requests a Variance for Alcohol Service within
close proximity to a School Zone. (Locations Identified on
Exhibit 'B')
3. The Applicant requests a Conditional Use Permit to reduce the
Parking Requirements from 3,136 per City of Ridgeland Code to
2,482 spaces. This Permit would reduce the parking
requirements by 654 parking spaces. Based on the ICSC parking
recommendations, the Applicant has declared that the parking
spaces as provided on the site plan are only 19 spaces short of
that recommendation. (Reference Exhibit 'C')
