01 Executive SummaryWHAT IS “THE HUB?”

“The HUB,” a mixed-use transit-oriented development, is the community of choice connecting you to your network. It is located adjacent to Layton City’s new transportation hub - where I-15, Layton Parkway, and Frontrunner converge (a.k.a. the center of the universe). The HUB’s proximity to Layton’s historic downtown and the future IHC community hospital, along with its quick access to the Wasatch Front, makes The HUB a very attractive development. These connections create the opportunity of a walkable master planned mixed-use development. The HUB creates an urban center for residents and neighbors through open space, recreation, and a vibrant mix of retail and commercial services.

WHY CREATE THE HUB?

A trifecta of shadow anchors exists around our site which has created a prime development opportunity.

WANNA INVEST?

The Hub is a rewarding development whose location will dictate high quality tenants and healthy profits for years to come. Dev.Fest is excited to deliver an exciting mixed-use, transit-oriented development. Stay connected.

a tunnel under the existing rail line linking the trail system and neighborhood to the UTA FrontRunner station. On the south side of Layton Parkway, IHC is planning to build a community hospital that will provide medical services to the surrounding community. Not only does The HUB have great access to the transportation network of the Wasatch Front, but it will also deliver its residents and businesses access to the world via a fiber optic network. Layton City is one of 13 cities in Utah to provide its citizens with internet access to Utopia’s Fiber Optic Network. The HUB is where people stay connected to life both virtually and physically.

Given its numerous and varied amenities, The HUB provides its residents with a greater quality of life. Picture waking up and walking to the local fitness center or taking a peaceful walk along Kay’s Creek trail to several nearby parks. Not your cup of tea? Walk over to the local café for your favorite brew and surf the web via Utopia’s fiber optic network. Found out you need to go into work? No problem. Jump on the nearby commuter rail and arrive downtown in no time. Long day at work? Take your family over to the local restaurant and enjoy dessert in the park. Need to get your kids out of the house? Take them on a bike ride along Kay’s creek trail to the nearby library or over to the community club house. The HUB keeps your life running smoothly.

URBAN LIFESTYLE

The HUB will provide its residents with an urban lifestyle. The project contributes to Layton’s overall downtown plan of creating a “District,” which is a place of distinguishing character. The development will attract more intense use by connecting walkable community places, open spaces, and providing aesthetically pleasing architecture.

The “American Dream” is shifting. Arthur C. Nelson, PH.D, FAICP, University of Utah, called it “A Decade of Changing Housing Demand.” The 40-year career, house in the suburbs, cheap gas, and all homes appreciate attitude has evolved. What is the “New American Dream?” Connections. Connections from home to friends, nature, recreation and technology. “Baby Boomers and Echo Boomers are looking for urban amenities.” The Ivory Institute, 2011. Convenience, connectivity, walk-ability, and efficiency are now associated with current housing demands.

PROPOSED USES

The proposed use is congruent with the current zoning. Our site plan will consist of mixed-use, transit-oriented development with residential, office, and retail. Layton City and UTA have proposed either a tunnel or sky bridge that will allow easy access to the FrontRunner station.

CURRENT ZONING

Mixed-Use, Transit-Oriented Development (MU-TOD). The land is currently zoned in accordance with our proposed use; therefore, no zoning changes will be required. “The purpose of the Transit-Oriented Development (TOD) Zone is to provide locations for developments near

transit centers that allow for concentrations of commercial, retail, and multiple-family residential uses that can take advantage of public transportation facilities. This zone also uses the demand for higher density development generated by mixed-use design to help accomplish Layton’s land preservation goals through the voluntary use of transfer of development rights.” Layton City Municipal Code 19.26 Mixed-Use/Transit Oriented Development (TOD)Zone, 19.26.010-Purpose and intent (July 8,2009).AA

03 Deal Economics The HUB will be a community success and a financial one as well. Based upon the realistic assumptions given in the pro forma, the leveraged IRR for the project is 15% and unleveraged is 7.6%. Because of these attractive returns Dev.fest’s excitement for The HUB isn’t limited to the fee we will earn managing the project. We also want to participate in the cash flows of this project and will thus contribute our development fee as deferred equity. However this leaves another $3.1M that is required in additional equity. According to Stan Castleton, CEO, DDRM Development, it is easier to raise 100 million than 100 thousand dollars. Projects like The HUB illustrate this principle. An economist from AEW has shown that with today’s capital markets, institutional money can be crucial for large scale projects. Additionally, institutional money managers demand class A investments. We are confident that the appealing returns will attract the necessary joint venture partner(s).

The HUB’s rents are in line with other similar products in the surrounding area. Construction costs are based upon current industry standards for the type of construction.

POPULATION GROWTH ESTIMATES IN DAVIS COUNTY

GREATER WASATCH VISION FOR 2040

Wasatch Front Regional Council and Mountainland Association of Governments:• Average household transit use in 2040 45%

higher than today.• Walkable community: new homes are

twice as likely as today’s homes to have convenient access to places to work, shop, play and learn.

• More vertical development, less sprawl: by 2040 there will be 40% more vertical development.

Vision 2040• Utah is among the fastest growing states in

the nation. • More than 900,000 growth-related

residential units will be constructed by 2040.

• Nearly 1.9 billion square feet of new and rebuilt space will be needed to accommodate the projected 2.9 million jobs we’ll have by 2040.

• The Wasatch Front has limited land available for development, and building roads to serve widely dispersed populations will become increasingly impractical and expensive.

PROFESSIONAL PERSPECTIVES

“IHC hospitals tend to generate lots of activity and become a destination.”Tom Uriona, IHC, Corporate Real Estate Director, CRE, MAI, CCIM

We do lease property, out of necessity, at the Layton Station for overflow parking. This will be going away in the next few months as development starts where we currently have the temp lot. The preference would be to capitalize the land and improvement costs once and not being subject to a lease that could expire, increase or terminate. Ryan McFarland, Manager, UTA, Transit Economic Development

Trails along Kay’s Creek would provide additional means of pedestrian circulation connecting to a future trail system across the city. These new circulation routes will open this area to greater development opportunities. Kay’s Creek would be developed as a pedestrian-friendly zone fronted by urban amenities such as nearby mixed-use buildings. Wasatch Front TOD Study: Layton Downtown- Proposed Commuter Rail Station

FINANCING

We plan to use the HUD-221-D4 Construction/Perm loan program to finance our multi-family project. Loan structure: 42 Year loan with 2 years Interest only that transitions into a 40 Term. This is a 100% Non-recourse loan with a fixed interest rate of 4.25%. The loan amount is based off the lesser of LTC/LTV at 83% + 7% Development fee + 3% Contractor fee. This type of financing is typical for multi-family financing right now.

Introduction

Layton City, in collaboration with the area merchants, stakeholders, residents, the Utah Department of Transportation and an Advisory Committee, has moved forward to create a plan focused on the Old Downtown and Fort Lane areas. This document is based on a foundation of ideas and the vision that many people have given to the project over the years. For the purposes of this plan document, downtown Layton refers to the 280-acre study area described on the map below. This Plan document was generated from planning committee meetings, advisory committee meetings, text from the Downtown Revitalization Study (2001), Envision Utah’s TOD Guidelines (2002, the Layton City RDA Plan (2004) and various other studies affecting the downtown area.

The key organizing compass that has emerged to guide the development and redevelopment of downtown Layton is the vision of a “district”. While urban development issues are by nature rather complex, this complexity does not have to confuse participants, especially when there is a very clear goal: a district. A district is an area or place with a “distinguishing character”. In order to be successful, this Plan will rely on the leadership and skills of all those who have interests in the area and a desire to implement the strategies outlined in this Plan.

BuildingThe Future We Want

The Greater Wasatch Vision for 2040The Greater Wasatch is one region, stretching from Weber County south to Utah County and from Tooele County east

to the Wasatch Back. We compete economically with other regions, comprise one job and housing market, and share

the same air and water. Where and how we shape tomorrow’s neighborhoods, communities, and economic centers

within our region will dramatically affect the quality of our lives, including how much time and money we spend getting

around, the quality of the air we breath, and the choices we have available to live, work, shop, and play.

NOTE: The Wasatch Choice for 2040 (May 2010) is a vision illustrating how growth

could unfold. The map’s purpose is to guide the development of our regional

transportation plan. The vision map reflects the Regional Growth Principles

adopted by the Wasatch Front Regional Council (WFRC) and the Mountainland

Association of Governments (MAG). The map is not a general plan and has no

regulatory authority. WFRC/MAG encourages cities and counties to consider the

growth principles and the vision map as local plans are updated in order to keep

people and goods moving, our communities livable, and cities prosperous for

generations to come.

Challenge and OpportunityUtah is among the fastest growing states in the nation. Growth brings both benefits

and challenges:

• Two-thirds of the buildings that will exist in 2040 have not yet been built.

• Total investment in new development will approach $700 billion.

• More than 900,000 growth-related residential units will be constructed by 2040.

About 180,000 existing dwellings will be replaced, rebuilt or renovated.

• Nearly 1.9 billion square feet of new and rebuilt space will be needed to

accommodate the projected 2.9 million jobs we’ll have by 2040.

• If we continue current patterns of development, municipalities will soon find

that growth-related expenses exceed expected revenues.

• The Wasatch Front has limited land available for development, and building

roads to serve widely dispersed populations will become increasingly

Envision Utah’s 3% StrategyWhat if we respond to market demand and allow one-third of our future homes,

jobs, and stores in walkable town centers and villages…and link them with a world-

class transportation system?

This approach, which would accommodate one-third of projected growth on just

3% of our region’s developable land, encourages targeted investment to create

exceptional places, maximize efficiency, keep the cost of living in check, and reduce

growth pressure on critical lands. Market analysts suggest that one-third of Utahns

will want to live in walkable neighborhoods, close to school, church, the grocery

store, and other services (Sources: RCLCO, Wasatch Front Development Trends,

Nov. 2007; Nelson, 2009). Declining household size, increasing housing and energy

costs, and a growing desire to trade commute time for family, service, work, and

recreation time will drive this demand for walkable living. Currently, the supply of

these neighborhoods lags behind demand, increasing their cost and reducing choice.

The 3% Strategy responds to this consumer demand, while preserving traditional

single-family neighborhoods for the majority who prefer suburban living.

How?• Focus growth in economic centers and along major transportation corridors.

• Create mixed-use centers throughout the region.

• Target growth around transit stations.

• Encourage infill and redevelopment to revitalize declining parts of town.

• Preserve working farms, recreational areas and critical lands.

Growth Principles for a Bright FutureWhen we plan together—understanding the local and regional impacts of our land

use and transportation decisions—we create thriving urban environments, friendly

neighborhoods, and a prosperous region. Our nine regional growth principles,

developed through extensive public input and adopted by elected officials, provide a

common framework and regional benefits:

1. Efficient InfrastructureMaximizing existing infrastructure and building more compactly

and contiguously conserves green space, saves taxpayer dollars, and

makes high-quality, lower-cost services available to us all.

2. Regional Mobility (Transportation Choice)With a balanced muti-modal transportation system, more

transportation options, and jobs and services closer to home, we

reduce the growth in per capita vehicles miles traveled, we spend

less time in traffic and have more time for friends, family, and doing

what we enjoy.

3. Coordinated PlanningLocal land use planning and regional transportation investments

impact one another. Coordination makes our communities healthy

and connected and our region vibrant.

4. Housing ChoiceEncouraging a variety of housing options, especially near transit

and job centers, addresses market demand and makes living more

affordable for people in all life stages and incomes.

5. Health and SafetyWhen our streets are walkable, interconnected, and safe, we lead

healthier lives by walking and biking more and driving less. These

streets also provide efficient access for emergency services. Trails

and access to nature provide healthy recreational opportunities.

6. Regional EconomyStrategic transportation investments and land use decisions can

encourage business investment and help secure jobs closer to home,

so we can provide for our families and keep our dollars in our

region.

7. Regional CollaborationBroad involvement, information sharing, and mutual decision making

preserve common values and encourage progress toward shared

goals.

8. Sense of CommunityLand use and transportation decisions that preserve our local

heritage while valuing diversity enrich our community life, keeping

our towns and cities beautiful and neighborly.

9. EnvironmentProtecting and enhancing air and water quality as well as critical

and working lands also protects our health, safety, and quality of life

for our kids and grand kids. Conserving water, energy, open space,

and other resources is good for the environment and our economy.

Coordinated trail systems will enhance access to areas of natural

beauty and recreation.

Growth Principles Come to Life

We protect local food production.

We live close to where we work.

We enjoy access to recreation and nature.

We enjoy walkable, bikeable streets. Transit connects

communities to job centers.

We save billions on infrastructure costs.

We cultivate vibrant urban centers for living, work and play.

We provide more housing options and preserve existing neighborhoods.

Vision Highlights

CorridorsThe Wasatch Choice for 2040 is our renewed vision, and it

informs our transportation investments. This “Choice” points

the way forward, focusing growth in a variety of activity

centers across the region, many of which are coordinated

with our existing and near-term transportation system:

freeways, rail lines, rapid busways and key boulevards. While

these centers are coordinated with today’s transportation

system, tomorrow’s transportation investments will enhance

service to these centers, including our region’s special

districts – like the Salt Lake International Airport, the

University of Utah, and Brigham Young University.

Commuter Rail / TRAX Freeways

Realizing The Wasatch Choice for 2040Why WFRC and MAG Developed a VisionOur cities and counties do a terrific job planning for their individual futures, but there are no groups better able to facilitate discussion about the collective future of our metro area than the Wasatch Front Regional Council (WFRC) and the Mountainland Association of Governments (MAG)—groups led by mayors and county commissioners. WFRC and MAG have developed the long-range regional transportation plans for our metro area for decades. With a visioning process called Wasatch Choices 2040 (facilitated by Envision Utah), which began with a huge citizen involvement effort, and its renewal, The Wasatch Choice for 2040, WFRC and MAG are also thinking about how growth patterns can help us maintain our quality of life for the coming decades.

Cities Should Explore What’s on the MapWFRC and MAG encourage cities to explore a mix of activities and walkable development to reduce the need for long drives and provide residents with what they want out of life: more time for what matters most, affordability, family, improved health, and the pride of living in a world-class region.

s/Modeling Coordination

CentersCenters are historical and emerging regional destinations

of economic activity. The vision suggests that these centers

should expand to provide ever-broadening choices for

residents to live, work, shop and play; a mix of all of these

activities is welcome. Centers should work with the long-

term market, helping provide opportunities to residents who want to live close

to work, walk or bike to shop, and have both great transit and road access –

desperately needed as our population ages, gas prices and congestion increase, and

housing prices inch upward.

Downtown Salt Lake City is the metropolitan center, serving as the hub of business and cultural activity in the region. It has the most intensive form of development

for both employment and housing, with high-rise development common in the central business district. It will continue to serve as the finance, commerce, government, retail, tourism, arts, and entertainment center for the region. The metropolitan center benefits from pedestrian friendly streetscapes and an urban style grid network. Downtown Salt Lake is the central hub for public transportation in the region. Auto access is prevalent with access to several major highways and thoroughfares.

Metropolitan Center Floor Area Ratio 1 to 1020 to 200 Housing units per acre

Urban Centers are the focus of commerce and local government services benefiting a market area of a few hundred thousand people. Urban

Centers will be served by high-capacity transit and major streets. They are characterized by two- to four-story employment and housing options.

Urban Center Floor Area Ratio 0.75 to 420 to 100 Housing units per acre

Town centers provide localized services to tens of thousands of people within a two to three mile radius. One- to three-

story buildings for employment and housing are characteristic. Town centers have a strong sense of community identity and are well served by transit and streets.

Town Center Floor Area Ratio 0.5 to 1.510 to 50 Housing units per acre

Station Communities are geographically small, high-intensity centers surrounding high capacity transit stations. Each helps

pedestrians and bicyclists access transit without a car. Station Communities vary in their land use: some feature employment, others focus on housing, and many will include a variety of shops and services.

Station Community Floor Area Ratio 0.5 to 2.520 to 100 Housing units per acre

Main Streets are a linear town center. Each has a traditional commercial identity but are on a community scale with a strong sense of the immediate neighborhood. Main streets prioritize pedestrian-friendly features, but also benefit from good auto access and often transit.

Main Street Community Floor Area Ratio 0.5 to 1.510 to 50 Housing units per acre

A Boulevard Community is a linear center coupled with a transit route. Unlike a Main Street, a Boulevard Community may not necessarily have a commercial identity, but may vary between housing, employment, and retail along any given stretch. Boulevard Communities create a positive sense of place for adjacent neighborhoods by ensuring that walking and bicycling are safe and comfortable even as traffic flow is maintained.

Boulevard Community Floor Area Ratio 0.35 to 1.00 to 50 Housing units per acre

GreenspaceGreenspace rings our valleys, connects our cities, and

provides space for civic and social functions in our towns

and neighborhoods. The Wasatch Choice for 2040 affirms that

our natural resources and working lands provide immense

benefits. We should safeguard them to preserve our regional

food system, protect our water quality, and maintain our recreational opportunities.

These lands also provide needed wildlife habitat, help to clean our air, and provide

relief from our urban environment. Even closer to home, our parklands and

greenways provide critical gathering spaces, recreational amenities, and connection

to the natural world.

Regional Greenways The Bonneville Shoreline Trail, the Jordan River Parkway, and the Provo River Parkway

Regional Connections

Links between greenways and major population centers

Green Context The Wasatch Mountains, the Oquirrh Mountains, the Great Salt Lake, and Utah Lake.

Vision Benefits:The Wasatch Choice for 2040 is a vision for how growth should unfold in our region.

When compared with a baseline (a projection of current trends in the future),

The Wasatch Choice for 2040 exhibits distinct benefits:

• Walkable communities: new homes are about twice as likely as today’s homes to

have convenient access to places to work, shop, play and learn.

• More growing up, less growing out: 40% more of our growth – compared to

recent trends -- fills-in existing communities and revitalizes business districts.

This enables more biking, shorter commutes, better air quality, and makes the

most of existing infrastructure.

• Real options for commuters: Average household transit use in 2040 could

be 45% higher than today, making commuting more affordable and providing

residents with more ways to get around.

• More open land stays open: Over the next 30 years, 24 fewer square miles

convert to buildings and streets enabling us to have more green infrastructure

and open land, with benefits ranging from more places for families to play, more

local farmer’s market food, better water quality, and more wildlife habitat.

Investment Utah Market Overview

NAI WEST Year End Report 2011© NAI WEST 2012. All Rights Reserved

Industrial InvestmentIndustrial activity increased 67% for the year with sales volume showing a positive 53% gain over 2010 numbers. Cap rates strengthened in most industrial sectors but vary widely depending on product type, length of lease and financial credit. Class A cap rates at 7.69% are at or near historic levels. The total sales volume reflects a severely supply constrained marketplace.

Multifamily InvestmentThe multifamily sector was the star performer for the year despite a scarcity of product. Activity remained the same as 2010 but the sales volume surged 128% for the year. Institutional sales accounted for more than half the total volume at cap rates generally below 6%. Experts believe the rental rates will steadily increase for at least two years until new product is added and the markets return to a more historical norm. The increased rental growth projections are signs that we are still faced with an anemic housing sector and perhaps a demographic shift away from home ownership. Demand will remain high for just about all product types. Large, class A and B product will command lower cap rates than the smaller 20-100 unit complexes.

Office InvestmentThe number of office investment transactions completed in 2011 rebounded sharply, up 64% with a percentage gain in total volume of 281% year over year. The sales figures were buoyed by an unusual number of large transactions. Office capitalization rates showed the disparity in product types with class A rates nearing 7% while the entire sector showed an overall average of 8.72%. Class A office fundamentals continued to improve, while B and C product saw little improvement with most sales valued well below replacement costs.

Retail InvestmentRetail sales volume increased 55.28% over 2010 thanks to a number of large shopping center transactions and numerous single credit tenant transactions. The majority of these sales were in the $1,000,000 to $2,000,000 range purchased with cash or favorable financing. Cap rates have continued to strengthen as competition for solid quality retail investments has driven pricing up.

91Utah repeats this year as Forbes Best State for Business and Careers in their sixth annual look at the business climates of the 50 states. No state can match the consistent performance of Utah. It is the only state that ranks among the top 15 states in each of the six main cat-egories rated. Utah high-lights include energy costs 31% below the national avg. and employment growth that has averaged 0.6% the past fi ve years. Compare that to the U.S. as a whole where job growth has averaged negative 0.6% since 2005. Businesses are getting the message on Utah. Proctor & Gamble, ITT, Home Depot and Boeing all announced expansions in Utah this year. The Goldman Sachs offi ce in Salt Lake City is its second biggest in the Americas with more than 1,000 employees and signifi cant expansion expected over the next four years.Technology companies par-ticularly have had Utah on their radar as an affordable alternative to California with overall business costs in Utah 10% below the national average. Adobe Systems, eBay, Electronic Arts and Oracle have all expanded in Utah in recent years.Companies are also at-tracted by Utah’s population growth which is one of the fastest in the country and provides a burgeoning work-force. “Utah has a young, dynamic economy with a vi-brant high-tech sector,” says Mark Zandi, chief economist of Moody’s Analytics.Source: Forbes, Nov. 22, 2011

After a low number of sales transactions during 2010 and the fi rst half of 2011 for 100+ unit communities, the sales volume during the fourth quarter of 2011 showed strong improvement.

1,800 units traded during the fourth quarter of 2011 for a total transaction volume of more than $185 Million. Notable transactions were Royal Farms (366 units), Royal Ridge (328 units), Irving Schoolhouse (232 units) and Alpine meadows (222 units).

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac continue to be the main source of apartment lending. All of the fourth quarter transactions were fi nanced with new agency debt. The low interest rates and inter-est- only options make Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac the preferred lending option.

Cap rates have com-pressed over the last 12 months. The following is a basic outline of cap rates for the different as-set classes.

Class A -- 5.75% - 6.25%Class B -- 6.0% - 6.5%Class C -- 6.5% - 7.0%

Retail: Retail was a strong performer for 2011. Davis County saw new retailers move in as well as the expansion of existing ones.

Station Park, west of I-15 near the TRAX station in Farmington, is Davis County’s new power center. It has received a lot of attention and is rapidly growing. A new XD Cinemark Theatre Complex recently opened. Other retailers that opened this year include Harmon’s (first Davis County location), Marshalls (first Utah location), TJ Maxx, Ulta (first Davis County location), Sports Authority, Ross, Sally Beauty, Tilly’s (first Utah location), Chase Bank, and Famous Footwear. Restaurants coming soon include Johnny Rockets (first Utah location), Settebello Pizzeria and Park Stone – Wood Kitchen & Bar.

The following companies also entered or expanded in Davis County in 2011:

Deseret Book opened a new store in Layton.•

It has also been announced that DSW Shoes will be closing their Davis County location in Layton at the end of December. This space has already been leased to Shoe Carnival.

In general, landlords are still offering incentives for retailers as the market remains very competitive. Vacancy rates are slightly higher than last year at this time, but are down from six months ago. Anchorless Strip Centers continue to struggle with the highest level of vacancy at 25.17%, while the larger anchored centers enjoy higher levels of occupancy with an average vacancy rate at 9.32%. Lease rates remain stable with average lease rates running between $11 and $15 per sf with very little change from six months ago.
