TROPHY CLUB DEVELOPMENT SCHEDULE
Development of the 198 acre Trophy Joint Venture parcel will occur in phases. A preliminary development
schedule estimate is attached for your review. The "projected development start window" represents the
period in which we anticipate the first phase of development commencing. The earliest date will most
Rely be 90 days from the date of rezoning. The latest date would be the end of the period, or possibly
later, depending on market conditions including the absorption pace of the remaining lots in Village West.
Financing availability and other macro market issues will also affect construction start timing. The lot
absorption levels represent the mid to upper ranges as projected in the market study which was submitted
to the Planning Commission. The schedule also assumes that the development and delivery of new lots
is coordinated with the depletion of lots in previous phases. Trophy Joint Venture will keep the City staff
fully informed of development plans to facilitate planning for City services.
