3 The History The Beckwith or Bonnie Briar Estate is one of the original Berkshires Cottages. It was built in 1892 and designed by architect and wealthy owner Leonard Forbes Beckwith. It was originally named Bonnie Briar. Its history is colored with many notable events and facts. Site of the largest barn in the United States and housed 100 horses Many large horse shows were held at the Estate It was the first site of the Berkshire Music Festival now at Tanglewood One owner planted multiple trees to create an outdoor New Thought chapel It was the site of a wedding where the bride and groom rode an elephant The site consists of 320 acres. This large parcel backs up to Yokun Mountain range and consists of woods and fields, along with a sizable area around the Estate with more formal plantings developed over the years. Many of its historical landscaping features, which made it an ideal outdoor venue for various events over time, remain today and add to the beauty and character of the property. Over the years, the property was used for various purposes, most recently as a boarding school, which closed over a decade ago. The property subsequently fell into disrepair and became an eyesore in the community until it was purchased by the current owner, who invested significantly to clean up the property and maintain it. This included demolishing a number of unsightly buildings and making certain the historic cottage era estate could be preserved.

5 Project Overview The destination resort and residential development will occupy approximately 100 acres of the 320 acres. The Project will preserve and enhance the historic view of the Estate from Interlaken Road, along with the other historic characteristics of the Cottage Era Estate. It will consist of the following: A hotel with guest rooms and suites 139 condominium units adjacent to the hotel designed to mirror the historic era of the hotel 34 single family residences in the rear of the property Restaurants, event space and amenities expected in a full-service resort open to the public acres of sustainable farm land open for the use of all residents Access to hiking trails As part of the resort, the project will incorporate an agrihood. Research from leading planning professionals show that agrihoods are becoming the leading housing trend for all age groups. Agrihoods are planned to incorporate access to basic gardening and farming products for the residents. They offer access to garden areas and locally grown food, promoting the farm to table movement. At 37 Interlaken, there would be active farming of approximately 15 to 20 acres, along with the maintenance of greenhouses and relationships with local farmers to provide farm to table food for those who live at the resort and those who dine at its restaurant. As we introduced this project to our neighbors and voters of Stockbridge, the most frequent criticism of the 37 Interlaken Road project is its size or density. The size or the scope of the Project is its most essential features. It is intended to be a material resort that draws large numbers of tourists and additional residents to the area. Major growth in tourism for the area cannot be accomplished through the addition of more small inns or small developments. A destination resort is required as an anchor for expanded tourism. Such a resort can draw Fortune 500 company conferences, large weddings and special conferences. There is not a better location in the Stockbridge area for such a resort than the 320 acres at 37 Interlaken Road. This $150 million investment will provide hundreds of construction and operational employment opportunities, with preferences being given to Stockbridge residents. The Project will also provide a dramatic economic stimulus to the Town, paying the Town over $2 million per year in taxes. Furthermore, it will materially contribute to the promotion of the tourism industry in the area and provide a venue that will be able to host large corporate events that does not exist in the Berkshires.

6 What s Next... Changes to Cottage Era Zoning Bylaws The proposed 37 Interlaken Project cannot be approved under the current Town of Stockbridge Zoning Bylaws. There are certain aspects to this unique resort community that were not contemplated by the current Bylaws. In order to move forward with this $150 Million investment in Stockbridge, we plan to submit a zoning amendment for consideration by appropriate Town boards and, ultimately, by Town Meeting in May 2018 if construction is to begin in by late This proposal would amend the Town s Cottage Era Estate bylaw to allow residential redevelopments of Cottage Era Estates, and would allow resort developments subject to Site Plan Review by the Planning Board. Specific features of the proposed bylaw include the following: - Residential Development Residential development would be allowed at a density of up to one house for every three acres of land area allocated to that purpose. To avoid over-development and preserve the beautiful open spaces that characterize Cottage Era Estates, this development could be clustered within a property. - Resort Development The proposed Bylaw would allow for development of a world-class destination resort. Such resorts may include the following features, which would be open to the public: o Hotel with up to 100 rooms o Restaurant venues & function facilities o Resort condominium units at a density allocation of up to one unit per acre o Recreational amenities, such as pool, spa, tennis and golf facilities o Artists studios and galleries - Agriculture The Bylaw would allow portions of a Cottage Era Estate to be used for greenhouses, farming and other agricultural uses to supply both the on-site restaurant and residents of the property. - Site Plan Review Any resort development under this proposed Bylaw would require the developer to obtain approval of the site development plan from the Town s Planning Board. This rigorous process would require the applicant to provide complete site plans, a full traffic study, drainage calculations, and detailed landscaping and lighting plans. In reviewing these plans, the Planning Board will be charged with ensuring that the proposal satisfies the following performance standards: o Minimize use of wetlands, steep slopes, flood plains, hilltops o Preserve natural or historic features o Provide for the preservation of open space o Preserve or enhance scenic views from publicly accessible locations o Prevent pollution of surface or groundwater o Provide for safe vehicular and pedestrian movement This proposed Bylaw will provide the flexibility necessary to encourage beneficial reuse and redevelopment of Cottage Era Estates such as the 37 Interlaken property, while also requiring that a process and standards are in place to ensure that the development is undertaken in a way that protects the Town s history, traditions, environment and resources. We want to present these draft Bylaws to the Selectmen in early November. We are hopeful that the Selectmen and the Planning Committee will provide these proposed Bylaws with a timely review; however, we recognize that this may not be possible as a result of a small number of abutters who oppose this project. We plan to work diligently and cooperatively with the Town to secure a timely review. We recognize that if our efforts are not successful, we will need to ask that our proposed Bylaws be placed on the Town Warrant for a vote at the 2018 May Town Meeting.

9 How You Can Help The 37 Interlaken Project needs the support of voters in the Town of Stockbridge if it is to become a reality. While May 2018 seems like a long time from today, it is really a very short time. Stockbridge voters need to understand our project and support it by attending Town Meeting next May. The time for action is now! We need the voters to vote in the affirmative for the Bylaw changes that will help 37 Interlaken Project become a reality. We can only do this with your help and support and by keeping the lines of communication open and transparent. Here are some ways you can help secure this wonderful project for Stockbridge. Let us know any questions you may have Talk to your neighbors about how important this project is for the future of Stockbridge Encourage those in support of the Project to vote in the Town Meeting Write a letter of support to the Selectmen, town leaders and/or the local paper Let us know of any meetings or other gatherings where we may share in formation on the Project Sign up for our mailing list so we can keep you informed of project developments We understand the challenges the Town faces balancing smart growth and preserving the essence of Stockbridge and the Berkshire region as a whole. We also understand the natural tendency to not have material changes in a community many have known and loved for years. Regardless of whether this project is embraced, the Town of Stockbridge is changing. The 37 Interlaken Road project represents a significant opportunity for the Town to not only embrace this change, but to insure Stockbridge s continuing vitality and take advantage of the rapidly growing hospitality industry. This cannot be done with small, tentative steps. We are passionate about Stockbridge and its future, and the role the 37 Interlaken project could have. We believe a resort of this type can be a material anchor for the further development of tourism in this beautiful area and further the expansion of the area s tourism based economy. While the project celebrates the history of the area, it can be a critical and material part of Stockbridge s future evolution.
