RE: Preliminary Demand Estimate for Senior Housing in Fridley, MN
Introduction/Purpose and Scope of Research
This memorandum provides a preliminary assessment of the market potential for a senior hous-
ing development to be located in Fridley, Minnesota. As we understand, Select Companies
would develop a site located on old Central Avenue and Mississippi Street. The proposed con-
cept is a seniar complex that combines congregate, assisted tiving and memory care housing.
The methodology used to caiculate demand in this memorandum is proprietary to Maxfield Re-
search but is consistent with methodologies used by analysts throughout the senior housing in-
dustry. It is important to note that demand estimates and conclusions contained herein are pre-
liminary and are intended only to broadly assess the depth of demand for senior housing prod-
ucts in Fridley and to determine whether additional senior housing products could be supported.
A more thorough investigation of the uniyue characteristics of the Fridley Market Area, outlined
in a Full Feasibility Study, would reveal more specific factors that would impact demand and
appropriate market positioning. Based on the results of fieldwork associated with a Full Feasi-
biliry Study, the Market Area used in this preliminary analysis may require refinement.
This memorandum delineates the primary draw area ("Market Area") for senior housing in Frid-
ley and presents an overview of the demographic and economic characteristics of the Market
Area: It then inventories existing and pending senior housing deveiopments that wouid be com-
petitive with the subject development. Demand for congregate (i.e. independent living with ser-
vices), assisted living and memory care senior housing is calculated based on demographic, eco-
nomic and competitive factors that wouid impact demand for senior housing units in the Market
Area. Our preliminary assessment concludes with an estimation of the total Market Area de-
mand that would be captured by a development on a suitable site.

Market Area Definition
Maxfield Research Inc. determined the draw area for the proposed project based on community
orientation and traffic patterns, geographic barriers and our experience in senior housing feasibil-
ity. The draw area, herein referred to as the "Market Area," includes the communities of Fridley,
Columbia Heights, and Spring Lake Park and Hilltop, located in Anoka County.
A map of the Market Area is shown below.

This draw area is considered to be the geographical expanse from which the majority, we esti-
mate 80%, of the demand for senior housing would be derived. The remaining portion of
demand would likely come from seniors who live just outside the Market Area boundaries, for-
mer residents who desire to return and parents of adult children living in Fridtey.
Older Adult and Senior (55+) Population and Household Trends
Table 1 shows the age distribution of people and households age 55 and older in the Fridley
Market Area. Data presented for 2000 is obtained from the U.S. Census. Estimates for 2008 and
projections through 2013 are calculated by Maxfield Research Inc. based on information pro-
vided by Claritas, Inc., a nationalty recognized demographic services firm, with adjustments
based on local demographic data provided by the Metropolitan Council and the Minnesota State
Demographic Center.

The following points are key trends noted in the distribution of the Market Area's older adult and
senior population and household base:
• As of 2000, the Fridley Market Area totaled an estimated 53,507 people and 22,489 house-
holds. The Market Area grew slowly between 2000 and 2008 adding 568 people and 646
households. Overall, the Market Area appears stable. Population and households are ex-
pected to continue their modest growth from 2008 to 2013, adding 575 people and 465
households, respectively.
• In 2008, the Market Area's senior population (65+) comprised approximately 1'4°fo`of the to-
tal population, and senior households accounted for an estimated 23°10 of the total household
base. Through 2013, growth in the senior age cohorts will increase these percentages to
17.4% and 26%0 of the total population and household bases, respectively.
• The Market Area's oider adult population {age 55 to 64) is forecast to experience the'strong-
est numerical growth over the next five years. By 2013, this age cahort is projected to total
approximately 7,298 people and 4,096 households, a growth of 11.7%o and 11%, respectively,
over the five-year period.
• By percentage, the'85±age cohort is projected to have the strongest growth over the next
five years, at 23.2.1 % and 22.5% for population and households, respectively.
. The group behind those 85+, (75 to 84), are forecast to experience much slower growth.
Lackluster growth in this age range can be attri6uted to a period oflow birth rates during'the
Great Depression.
.
.
Senior housing complexes are age-restricted to older adults and seniors age 55 or 62 and old-
er. While some older adult and younger senior households choose independent housing
products, seniors �re typically age 75 or older before moving into senior housing with servic-
es, although some seniors may choose to reside in congregate housing at a younger age. For
the subject development, the majority of demand would be generated`by growth in the 75+
age cohort, which is forecast to experience growth of 11.2%, or 453 people over the next five
years. �
As previously discussed; the majority of growth in the 55+ population is being generated by
younger age cohorts. As these individuals age and need additional services, demand for ser-
vice-enhanced housing products will increase over the long-term.
Older Adult and Senior Household Incomes
The estimated distribution of older adult and senior households by age and income in the Fridley
Market Area is displayed inTable 2. Information detaited in the Table is supptiedby Claritas,
Inc. with local adjustment according to the Metropolitan CounciL 1t is important to note that the

data does not account for the asset base of senior households or supplemental income that a se-
nior household could gain from the proceeds from a sale of a home or from contributions from
family members. The data in Table 2 helps determine demand for senior housing based on the
size of the market at specific income levels. This data is incorporated into our demand calcula-
tions, which are presented in a following section.
The frailer the senior, the greater the proportion of their income they typically spend on senior
housing alternatives. Studies have shown that seniors are willing to pay increasingproportions
of their incomes on housing with services, beginning with an income allocation of 40% to 50%0
for market rate active adult housing with little or no services, increasing to 65% for indepen-
dent/limited-services care and to 80% to 90% for assisted living housing. The proceeds from the
sale of their homes, as well as financial assistance from their adult children, are often used as
supplemental income in order to afford senior housing alternatives.
The following are key points from Table 2. �
• Empty-nester households (ages 55 to 64) tend to have substantially higher incomes than se-
nior households, since there are many more households with two or more people and a sig-
nificantly higher percentage of this age group continues to work.: Typically, the older the age
cohort the lower the median income, as older age cohorts have a much larger portion of one-
person households and typically only one income source.
• In 2008, the median income of Market Area households is $57,266 for households ages 55 to
64, $39,711 for households ages 65 to 74 and $24,204 for households ages 75 and oider. Eor
senior households (65+) overall, the median income is about $30,930.
• The income-yualified market for senior housing is defined as households earning annual in-
comes of$30,000 or more ($35,000 in 2013 after adjusting for inflation). As of 2008, there
are about 2,845 senior households (age 65+) in the Market Area with incomes of at least
$30,000, accounting for more than 50% of a1165+ households.
• The income-qualified market is forecast to grow by over 1,000 households in the next five
years. With fiousehold growth across the income spectrum, the percentage of income-
qualified households is forecast to remain over half of all 65+ households.
• Lower income households comprise a second portion of demand for housing products that
are available at lower rent rates or subsidized through various Waiver or government-funded
programs. Due to limited availability of housing with rent discounts, demand for senior
housing products from lower income households is often substantiaL

Senior Household Tenure
In addition to their existing income sources, many senior households would be able to derive
supplemental income to use toward housing alternatives by investing the proceeds from the sales
of their homes. Table 3 shows the homeownership rates among senior cohorts in 1990 and 2000, .
according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
The following are key points from Tab1e 3.
• Typically, homeownership rates dectine with household age. In 2000, homeownership was
86% for households age 55 to 64, 86% for households age 65 to 74 and 65% for households
age 75 and oider.
• Seniors in the Fridley Market Area begin moving to senior housing (or other renter-occupied
units) after the age of 75, as observed in the decrease in homeownership between the 65 to 74
age cohort (86%) and the 75+ age cohort (65%).

• Between 1990 and 2000, the homeownership rates among seniors age 65+ increased slightly,
from 76% to 77%.
� • With homeownership rates of 77% for all households over the age of 65, a sizeable propor-
tion of residents would be able to use proceeds from the sales of their homes toward senior
housing a(ternatives. The resale of single-family homes would allow additional senior
households to qualify for market rate housing products, since equity from the home sale
could be used as supplemental income for alternative housing. These considerations are fac-

tored into our demand calculations, which are presented in a following section of this memo-
randum.
Home Resale Values
Tabte 4, located on the following page, presents a review of home sales as reported by the Mul-
tiple Listing Service (MLS) for 2003 through the first half of 2008 for the Fridley Market Area.
The fol•lowing points are a summary of key findings:
• For the Market Area overall, the average sale price was $202,368 in 2007, down from a high
of $211,300 the year before. So far in 2008, the average home price was $166,877, down
again from the previous year, in this case by 17.4%. It should be noted that fewer homes are
on the market and independent seniors can be expected to avoid se(ling their homes until the _
market improves.
• Resale activity reached a peak of 674 homes sold in 2005 and has been decreasing annually
since that point. Approximately 412 residential real estate transactions occurred in 2007, a
drop of 39% from 2005.
• Based on the 2008 median sale price of $1b6,887 in the Fridley Market Area, a senior house-
hold could generate approximately $6,208 of additional income annually (about $517 per
month), if they invested in an income-producing account (4% interest rate) after accounting
for marketing costs andlor real estate commissions (7% of home sale price). This income
coutd be used to cover the cost of living in senior housing alternatives, which allows an addi-
tional portion of seniors to yualify for housing alternatives who would otherwise not have
qualified based on incomes alone. Additionally, this income could be used dollar-for-dollar
" toward the cost of living in senior housing alternatives. These proceeds would support living
in congregate housing (estimated monthly rent of $1,600) for about eight years. At a typical
assisted living monthly rent of $3,000, proceeds from the home sale would last about four
years.
• The slowdown in the real estate marlcet will have some impact on the ability of seniors to sell
their homes within a reasonable period of time. Untit the market improves, demand for se-
nior housing products, particularly housing products that are not need-based, may be less `
than calculated demand indicates.

Senior Housing Defined
Senior housing is a concept that generally refers to the integrated delivery of housing and servic-
es to seniors. However, as the figure below shows, senior housing embodies a wide variety of �
product types across the service-delivery spectrurr►; products range from independent apartments
and/or townhomes with virtually no services on one end, to highly specialized, service-intensive,.
assisted living units or housing geared far people with dementia-related illnesses (termed "mem-
ory care") on the other end of the spectrum. In general, independent senior housing attracts
people age 65 and over while assisted living typically attracts people age 80 and older who need
assistance with activities of daily ,living (ADLs). ,

The least service-intensive projects, also termed "active adulY' or "adult" projects, are similar to

restrict tenancy to those ages 55 and over. Congxegate/optional-services projects, the next level
to the right on the service-delivery spectrum, offer support services such as meals and house-
keeping, but often through tiered package pricing or a-la-carte so that services can be customized _
for the resident's individual needs. A third type of senior housing is congregate/service-
intensive; these projects inclwde some basic support services in the rent and typically attract a
frailer senior population than adult or optional-services projects.
The most service-intensive product types, assisted living and memory care, offer the highest le-
veis of services short of a nursing home. Typicat services covered in the fee for both of these
product types include all meals, housekeeping, linen changes, personal laundry, 24-hour emer-
gency response and a wide range of personal care and therapeutic services (either built into the
fee or a-la-cartej. Sponsorship by a nursing home, hospital or other health care organization is - -
common for assisted living and memory care projects as well as for many congregate projects:
Supply of Senior Housing in the Fridley Market Area
Maxfield Research Inc. identified 77 units of congregate, 105 units of assisted living and 9 units
of inernory care in the Fridley Market Area. We also found two developments for those 55+,
which offer no services or assistance. Tab}e 5 displays an inventory of these developments, as
well as existing service-enhanced senior housing developments located near the Fridley Market
Area. Those include congregate, assisted living and memory care senior housing. The following
are key points regarding the existing senior housing supply.
• The vast majority of senior fiousing in the Fridley Market Are� is adult, no-services '
apartments. These include Banfill Crossing in Fridley, the area's newest 55+ develop-
ment, a four-story building completed in 2000, with 110 one-and two-bedroom apart-
ments. Oak Crest, and the Cottages of Spring Lake Park were both constructed in the
1990s, and together provide 153 units of older adult living. None of these developments
would be considered competitive with a senior development with services:
• There are a total of 191market rate service-enhanced senior housing units outside, but
near the Market Area, of which 77 are congregate units, 105 are assisted living units and
• nine are memory care units. '
• BoulevardApartments, the only congregate facility in the Fridley Market Area, was built
in 1984 and is owned by Crest View Senior Communities. Crest View also owns and
manages Crest View on 42"d and Royce Place, both assisted living facilities with 41 and
64 units, respectively. Crest View on 42"d also contains nine units of inemory care.

• Located one miles east of the proposed site, and managed by Silvercrest, are Brigh-
tondale Assisted Living in New Brighton and Meadowood Shores. Brightondale was
built in 1988 and has 64 units of assisted living and 11 units of inemory care. It cur-
rently has five vacancies. Meadowood Shores, built in 2000, has l06 congregate
units and three vacancies.
• Senior developments just outside of the Fridley Market Area were largely built in the
1980s and 1990s. On the newer end, Creekside Cottages of Coon Rapids has a 2006
occupation date, while Comforts ofHorrae in Blaine opened its doors in 2004.
' • Assisted living and memory care in particular have undergone a design sea change
over the past decade, as the hospital concept of care for the frailer elderly has given
way to more functional universal design, and developments have become more hotel-
like in their offerings of amenities and choices. Older developments may now be less
attractive to seniors and their adult children.

Pending Senior Housing in the Fridley Market Area
Maxfield Research interviewed local officials in Market Area communities to learn of any pro-'
posed or planned senior housing developments that are currently in the City approvals process.
Fridley planners report that all senior developments are currently stalled or canceled, and that
they expect nothing to be moving forward for some time. Spring Valley, a for-sale senior condo
project on Old Central has stalled. Another 54 unit senior building in the Town Center devel-
opment is in bankruptcy court, and a purchase proposal for a senior development on the Colum-

bia Arena site was recently rejected by the land owner.
In Columbia Heights, the Comforts ofHome project planned for construction on the old Apache
Plaza site has "died" according to the City's planning department, after that company built an
underground parking garage and foundation. In its place, construction should be moving for-
ward on a 75-unit assisted living and memory care facility spearheaded by New Perspectives.
New Perspectives is planning to have a mix of 42 assisted living units and 35 memory care units.
Because this development is on the far corner of the Fridley Market Area, we are halving the
number of units that we will consider competitive to 21 and 16 units of assisted living and mem-
ory care respectively. In additron, the City has approved a HUD 202 project for 50 units on Hu-
set Parkway that will contain an attached 28 unit adult 55+ building, which will be market rate,
and is not included in our demand analysis.
Spring Lake Park reports no new projects in the pipeline, and Hilltop would be unable to shoe-
horn in any senior housing development:
We identified four pending projects outside Fridley Market Area, which we are not including in
our demand analysis. United Properties is constructing an Apple Pointe senior cooperative in
Roseville, with 94 units of independent, congregate and assisted living. In Shoreview, Cascade
Partners is proposing a 65-unit senior cooperative near the intersection of Highway 96 and Hod-
geson Road, but at this time Shoreview Planning reports the Cascade Partners development is on
hold.
In Blaine, Afilius Senior Living Center has City approval but has yet to begin construction on a
150-unit continuum of care campus that will be managed by Augustana Care Corp, based in
Minneapolis. Also in Blaine, Crest View Senior Communities has been approved but has not
begun construction on a 170-unit senior living campus facility. In addition, White Pines Senior
Living has app(ied to the City of Blaine to build a 65-unit building for adults 55+ in the Lakes
Development. The company has also indicated an interest in adding an assisted living facility in
the future..
Prel�minary Demand Estimates for Senior Housing
Demand for Congre�ate Senior Housing
Table 6 presents our demand calculations for market rate congregate senior housing (i.e., inde-
pendent senior housing with services) in the Market Area in 2008 and 2013.
The market for congregate senior housing is comprised of households age 65 and older in the
Fridley Market Area. In order to arrive at the potential age, income and asset-qualified base for
congregate housing, we include all senior households with incomes of $30,000 or more plus
homeowner households with incomes between $20,000 and $29,999 who would qualify with the
proceeds from a home sale. The nurnber of qualifying homeowner households is estimated by

applying the appropriate homeownership rate, as identified in Table 3, to each age cohort. 1n
2008, we estimate there are 3,654 age, income and asset-qualified households that would support
demand for congregate senior housing in the Fridley Market Area.
Adjusting to include appropriate capture rates for each age cohort (1.5% of households age 65 to
74 and 8.5% of households age 75 and older) results in a demand potential for an estimated 158
congregate senior housing units in 2008.

In addition to the demand generated from within the Market Area, a second portion of demand
would come from outside the Market Area. We estimate that seniors currently residing outside
the Market Area wiii generate 20% of the demand for congregate senior housing - increasing to-
tal demand to about 200 congregate units. This demand consists primarily of parents of adult
children living in the Market Area, individuals who live just outside the Market Area and have
an orientation to the area and former residents who desire to return upon retirement.

We have identified 73 existing units of independent housing with services for seniors in the Frid-
ley Market Area, but find none pending at this time. Subtracting 73 units gives an excess market
demand potential for 125 units.
No single site can capture all of the excess demand in a Market Area. We have estimated that an
appropriate site in Fridley can capture 55% of the congregate demand .potential. Based on the
calculations in Table 6, we find excess demand capturable on a site in Fridley for 69 congre-
gate units in 2008.
Adjusting for inflation, we project that all households with, incomes of $35,000 or more and
homeowners with incomes of befween $30,000 and $34,999 would be candidates for congregate
housing in 20l 3. Following the same methodology, we project that deinand for congregate
housing on the subject Site will decrease slightly to 64 congregate units in 2013.
Demand for Assisted Living Senior Housing . .
Table 7 presents our demand calculations for assisted living senior housing in the Fridley Market
Area in 2008 and 2013.
The availability of r�ore intensive support services such as meals, housekeeping and personal
care at assisted living facilities usually attracts older, frailer seniors. Hence, the age-qualified
market for assisted living housing is defined as seniors ages 75 and over.
Due to the supportive nature ofassisted living housing, most daily essentials are included in
monthly rent, which allaws seniors to spend a higher proportion of their incomes on assisted liv-
ing housing with basic services. Therefore, the first step in determining the potential demand for
assisted living housing in the Market Area is to identify the age and income-qualified market
based on a senior's ability to pay the monthiy fees. An income of approximately $35,000 and a
90% allocation of that income for housing translates to an affordable monthly fee of roughly
$2,600, which would be an approximate base monthly fee at many assisted living projects. Thus,
all households with incomes above $35,000 would be able to afford the monthly fee at an as-
sisted living facility, based on monthly fees of $2,600.
In addition to seniors who are qualified based on their incomes alone, there is a substantiai base
of senior households with lower incomes who own their homes. These seniors have an untapped
source of equity that can be�used as supplemental income to defray the additional costs incurred
by living in senior housing alternatives. There are a significant number of seniors who will
spend down their assets or will receive financial assistance from family members in order to
avoid institutional care. With a year-to-date average home resale value of $167,000 in the Frid-
h h' ld b bl to derive ad-
ley Market Area and relatrvely high rates of omeowners �p, sen�ors wou e a e
ditional income from the sale of their single-family homes.

Because the vast majority (90% according to the latest ALFA survey) of assisted living residents
are single, our demand methodology separates the number of senior households who live alone
from those who live with a spouse or other relative. We have further broken down the number of
senior households by household type and income. From these figures, we apply acceptable cap-
ture rates for each income cohort and houset�old type to derive the potential age and income-
qualified market. As of 2008, there are an estimated 422 age and income-qualified seniors in the
Market Area that comprise the potential market for assisted living senior housing.
Demand for assisted living housing is need-driven, which reduces the age and income-qualified
market to only the portion of seniors who need assistance. Studies by government agencies indi-
cate that about 30% of all seniors age 75 and over need assistance with at least three activities of '
daily living (ADL). Applyingthis proportion to the age/income-qualified household base yields
a potential assisted living market of an estimated 122 seniors in the Market Area in 2008.
We estimate that roughly 70% of the age and income-qualified market needing significant assis-
tance with ADLs will be a6le to remain in their homes with the assistance ofa family member or
home health care. The remaining 30% will need assisted living housing. Applying this market
penetration rate results in demand for an estimated 422 assisted living units in 2008.
A portion of demand for assisted living units in the Market Area, we estimate 20%, will come
from outside the Market Area. This secondary demand will include households currently living
just outside the Market Area, former residents, parents of adult children that desire supportive
� housing near their aduft children and increasingly frail retirees returning from retirement com-
munities. Applying this figure results in total potential market for approximately 210 assisted
living units in 2008.
After subtracting 96 units of assisted living in two Columbia Heights buildings, we that Market
Area excess demand exists far an estimated 113 assisted living units.
No single site can capture all of the potential demand in a Market Area. We have estimated that
an appropriate site in Fridley can capture appraximately 55% of the demand potential in the
Marlcet Area. Applying this capture rate results in a total potential demand for 62units of as-
sisted living in 2008.
The same calculations are applied to the age and income-qualified base in 2013, with the addi-
tion of 21 units of pending assisted living slated for the New Perspectives development in Ca
lumbia Heights (half of the total 42 units). Following the same methodology, total potential
demand for assisted living housing is expected to decrease slightly to 53 assisted living units
through 2013.

Demand for Memorv Care Senior Housin�
Table 8 presents our demand calculations for memory care senior housing in the Fridley Market
Area in 2008 and 2013.
Demand is calculated by starting with the estimated Market Area senior (65+) population in
2008 and multiplying by the 8% incidence rate of Alzheimer'sldementia among this population.
This yields a potential market of an estimated 682 seniors in the Fridley Market Area. Accord-
ing to data from theNational Institute for Aging, about 25% of all persons with memory care
impairments would be potential candidates for memory care housing units. This figure considers
that seniors in the early stages of dementia will still be able to live independently with the care of
a spouse or other family member, while those in the later stages ofdementia will require inten-
sive medical care that would only be available in skilled care facilities. Applying this figure to
the estimated population with memory impairments yields a potential market of approximately.
170 seniors in the Fridley Market Area in 2008.
Because of the staff-intensive nature of dementia care, monthly fees for this type of housing typ-
ically start at about $4,000. Residents of designated memory care housing often contribute 90%
or more of their incomes for monthly fees. Thus, the income-qualified market is defined as indi-
viduals with incomes of $50,000 or more, or incomes of $40,000 and non-income producing as-
sets of $200,000 or more that could be converted to monthly income (i.e. senior homeowners
earning $40,000 or more). As with all senior housing with services, a portion of this demand
will also come from seniors who are willing to spend down assets and%or receive financial assis-
tance from family members.
Based on our review of senior household incomes in the Market Area, homeownership rates, and
home resale data, we estimate that 30% of all age-qualified seniors in the Market Area would
have incomes andlor assets to sufficiently cover the costs for memory care housing. This figure
takes into account two-person households where one spouse may have memory care needs and
allows for sufficient income for the other spouse to live independently. Multiplying the potential
markeC by 30% results in a total of 51 seniors who would be age, income and asset-qualified in
2008.
We estimate that 20% of the overall demand for memory care housing in the Fridley Market
Area would come from outside the Market Area. This secondary demand includes households
currently living just outside the Market Area, former residents, parents of adult children who de-
sire supportive housing near their adult children and increasingly frail retirees returning from re-
tirement communities. Together, demand from within and outside the Market Area totals about
64 memory care housing units in 2008.
We estimate that an appropriate site in Fridley would capture approximately 55% of the total
memory care demand in the Fridley Market Area. Excess demand is calculated for 30 memory
care units that would be capturable on an appropriate Site in 2008.

The same calculations were applied to the projected age, income and asset-qualified base in 2013
to determine demand for memory care housing over the next five years. In addition, we add 16
pending memory care units from New Perspective Senior Living (half of the total 32 units). This
results in a projected demand for 21 memory care units in 2013..

Preliminary Conclusions '
Our preliminary assessment of the factors impacting demand for senior housing, including de-
mographic, economic and competitive variables, shows clear support for additional senior hous-
ing in the Fridley Market Area. A summary of the demand potential on an appropriate Site 'tn
Fridley is provided on the following page. Demand for 2013 calculated after the addition of '

Based on our preliminary findings, we find market support for approximately 200 senior housing
units that could be supported on an appropriate site. Approximately 65 congregate units, 50 as-
sisted living units and 20 memory care units could comprise a senior housing development.
Over the next five years, demand for senior housing is forecast to decrease slightly for all three
service levels due to competitive developments in the area that are now in some stage of plan-
ning and construction.
In addition to demand calculated for market rate senior housing, the subject develapment may be
able to accommodate additional units by allocating a portion of units to be funded by Elderly
Waivers, for the higher service levels, assisted living and memory care.
It should be noted that our conclusions are preliminary and do not co�sider the quality of a par-
ticular site for a senior housing development, historical performance of other senior housing de-
velopments in the Market Area, price and positioning of the subject project, or other important
factors (i.e. architectural, marketing and management issues) that would likely impact the market
feasibility of the subject development.
