King Airport, Terminal Building - 2nd Floor 8100 Lindberg Bay St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands 00802 THRU: JEAN-PIERRE ORIOL, DIRECTOR OF COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT RE: SCOPE OF PERMIT NO. CZT-05-17(L) FOR GREAT St JAMES CAY, St THOMAS Dear Commissioner Henry, The Jaredian Design Group, on the behalf of our client. Great Jim, LLC, seeks to amend the Scope proposed for MINOR COASTAL ZONE MANAGEMENT PERMIT NO. CZT-05-17(L) FOR GREAT ST. JAMES CAY, ST. THOMAS, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS. This amended Scope is a result of an outgrowth of further meetings between Project Representatives of Great St. Jim, LLC, and DPNR's Coastal Zone Management staff on the proposed Work to be done on Greot St. James Coy, St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. The Great St. Jim Team, on the advice of CZM, has reviewed and made initial determinations as to how the Coy will be developed in the near, foreseeable future. We have broken the Work Scope into two phases that address immediate needs in Phase I and the longer range goals in Phase II. In general, each phase can be described briefly as: 1. PHASE I will include the Cay-wide cleanup, stabilization of existing driveways; construction of some new driveways; limited landscaping; concrete pads; and the erection of two flags poles. 2. PHASE II consists of the construction of Residential Cottages and accessory structures to be done in the future. We understand that more information will be required for the construction of these future structures, but request approval of them conceptually to be included the Scope of the permit. Specifically, the overall Scope is shown graphically on Sheet C1.0 of the attached Design Drawings. This Site Plan also includes the tagging of site-plan enlargements for particular improvements. The improvements by phases are as follows: PHASE I - • Installation of the Mobile Cabana/Tiki Bar on Parcel No. A Remainder; • Paving of an existing Driveway on Parcel No. A Remainder with "Blue-Bit" Stone and concrete; I 1 Permit Considerations to CMOS-170j on Great St. James Coy, St. Thomas. Virgin Islands Jareclion Design Grout, December 22.2016 EFTA00602111 • Installation of a 75-foot-diameter-concrete Terrace on Parcel No. A Remainder; • Erection of two 80-foot Flog Poles on Parcels Nos. A-2 and C-1 Remainder; • Stabilization of the existing Driveway Pathways throughout the Cay, through the use of erosion mats, tockified polymer/gravel. This Scope shall also include the clearing of debris and brush berms with replanting, utilizing native shrubs and grass; • Landscaping with the use of palms and native shrubs on Parcel No. C-1 Remainder; • Construction of two new 12-foot-wide Dirt Accessways on Parcels Nos. A Remainder. B-I -2 and A-2; • Construction of a 25-foot by 75-foot Concrete Pad to erect a portable tent on Parcel No. A-1; • Creation of a 50-foot in diameter Observation Area on Parcel No. B-1-1, with the finish to be native grass. PHASE H - • Construction of a new Residential Cottage, Pool Pavilion, and new Swimming Pool on Parcel No. A Remainder; • Construction of a new 25-foot by 50-foot Pre-engineered Storage Building on Parcel A Remainder; • Construction of a new Pavilion adjacent to the 75-foot in diameter Concrete Terrace on Parcel No. A Remainder; • Construction of a new Residential Guest House on Parcel No. B-2-I; • Construction of a new Pavilion on Parcel No. C-2 Remainder; • Construction of a new Residential Cottage on Porcel No. B-1 Remainder; • Construction of a new Residential Cottage on Parcel No. C-I Remainder; • Construction of a 60-foot by 100-foot Pre-Engineered Storage Building on Parcel No. C-1 Remainder. All of the proposed Phase II structures will be single story buildings, in keeping with the scole of the existing buildings located on the Cay. The attached drawings describe, and graphically show the location of these proposed improvements. While there are some 17 lots throughout the Cay that could result in up to 34 residential units, our vision for the Cay is to add five residential cottages to supplement the existing house on Parcel No. A Remainder. The other two pavilions will not be full cottages, but special spaces to enjoy different views on the knolls throughout the Cay. The two storage buildings (one on the north-western end, the other on the south-eastern end] will be screened from the shore and hillsides, and will provide the necessary maintenance and storage for the Cay, at anticipated marine entry points. The 75-foot-diameter Concrete Terrace on Parcel No. A Remainder will not be a helipad. If, in the future, this deck is used as a private landing site, Great St. Jim will apply for the necessary permits required for that purpose, at that time. As stated earlier, this revised Scope is based on joint meetings between Great St. Jim and DPNR's staff to more fully define the short-term and long-term goals for the Cay. The short-term goals 2 Permit Considerations to CZT-05-17(1) on Great St. James Coy. St. Thomas.
