Phasing Plan and Schedule Development in the Valley Area may proceed without awaiting the physical installation of the Glenwood I -5 Collector. The very low density being proposed in the Valley Area, particularly in the southwest corner of the development, meets or exceeds the concerns on development in the Valley Area suggested by the Hearings Official. In addition, Applicant has agreed to provide certain off -site public facilities and services (improvements to Laurel Hill Drive, Riverview Street, portions of the improvements to the 1 -5 /Glenwood Interchange and any stormwater improverrlents resulting from the development and not otherwise planned, scheduled and capital funded by the City). Applicant assumes that development of the East Area will have to await more monetary commitments by governmental agencies and developers of the property between Son Blaze Village and I -5, even though the requisite ODOT Roach Approach Permit and construction plans for the Glenwood Collector and Moon Mountain Drive have been approved by the City. Physical construction of the improvements is not being objected to by Applicant as to Phases 5, 6, 7 and 9 (the East Area). Accordingly, Applicant has structured a phasing schedule which incorporates both the ability to develop the Valley area to the extent contemplated in the Laurel Hill Refinement Plan (as recognized by the Hearings Official), while firmly committing to the premise that the Glenwood Collector will become the primary access for the East Area and incidentally the Valley area. That is, the entire master plan for Son Blaze Village has, as its major premise, the construction of Glenwood Boulevard (Brackenfern) to serve the more dense and limited commercial character of the East Area and, incidentally, some of the Valley Area. As stated in the Laurel Hill Plan: "It (the East Area) is also an area in transition from rural to urban and is a geographically defined area. Many of the plan provisions apply to the Laurel Hill Valley also apply to East Laurel Hill. It is, however, a distinct area in its topography, having unique needs of its own. Also, the transportation needs of East Laurel Hill are unique and different from the Laurel Hill Valley. East Laurel Hill is influenced primarily by the I -5 cloverleaf and the proposed Glenwood Collector, which bisects a narrow corridor with hills on both sides." Laurel Hill Plan, p. 13, (emphasis supplied). The Transportation Section of the Refinement Plan defines basic layout and functions of the Glenwood Collector (Brackenfern Road):
