Dating back to the AUAR, which established the Conservation Design Framework, and the original Hardwood Creek project, a number of key public values have been defined for the project: Site Specific Public Values • Improve water quality • Create interconnected, continuous open space system with trail network • Enhance ecological systems on site • Improve stormwater management (flow rates, volume and quality) • Increase natural open space over conventional development • Increase city tax base • Needed transportation improvements • Diverse housing opportunity • Walkability In addition through development of the site and the flexibility offered through the PUD process the City has or will obtain the following: 1. I -35E & CR 14/Main Street Interchange completed (approximately $1.5 million investment) 2. Large scale master planned development 3. Continuity in landscape, park and building design 5
