Roberts Management Group, LLC 1851 Buerkle Road | White Bear Lake, MN 55110 (651) 773-3485 | FAX: (651) 773-3490 July 2, 2014 Mr. Ryan Streff Dear Mr. Streff We have recently entered into a purchase agreement for the approximant 8.04 acre site at 1235 Red Fox Road and attached you will find a preliminary site plan depicting 2 industrial buildings totaling roughly 95,000 sq. ft. Both buildings would be high quality industrial buildings capable of housing a wide variety of businesses. USE It is our hopes that this project could serve as a potential alternative for the tenants that we will need to relocate prior to Phase II of the Lexington Station project. The two buildings depicted on the site plan would be similar in design and use. Both buildings would be multitenant industrial building made up of a variety of tenants averaging 20% office (with some tenants having more and some having less) and the remainder of the space used for a variety of purposes including manufacturing, production, retail sales/service, and warehouse. As stated above both buildings would serve as a home to a variety of businesses some which might include office, the manufacturing and production of goods, warehousing goods and, due to the exposure, there is the possibility we would see some showroom tenants and retail services/goods tenants as well. BUILDING DESIGN I have included several photographs of buildings depicting the types of construction and materials that would be used during construction. The larger building would be between 25’ and 30’ tall (as opposed to the smaller building which might be between 20’ and 25’) to allow tenants to be able to maximize the use of their space by being able to store products vertically. Also, the higher building would give a very prominent look to the entire project as seen from the interstate system. The buildings will be built out of Tip Up concrete panels chosen for their attractiveness, efficiency, and longevity. Brick and/or decorative metal would be used to accent the building and to give a level of depth, sophistication, and to provide focal points for entryways and corners of the building. It is our intention to use a high amount of glass on the building fronts incorporating ribbon windows. We would also employ metal awnings seen on some of the photos to help add character and to provide each tenant space with sense of individualism within their space. LANDSCAPING It would be our intention to create a landscaping environment typical of what might be found at most newer industrial products. In would be our goal to incorporate a mix of native prairie grasses and hardy perianal shrubs in the landscaped areas. Currently on the site there is a large amount of low quality
