I noticed that on today's Council agenda you will be talking about potential uses for the Imperatrice property. We have come up with what we think is the perfect idea for this property. Basically the idea is to create an eco village on this land by dividing up the 'usable' part of the 800+ acres into 2.5 acre plots with a town center, lots of community space and other infrastructure as well. This project would be not just 'sustainable' but 'infinitely sustainable' with multiple centers of initiative, and will put Ashland on the world map as having created a model for an eco community that can be replicated almost anywhere in the world and scaled up or down. In our estimations this project could potentially create initial revenues of between 10-20 million dollars (with the net profit being a large part of the gross) and then residual annual income streams of several million more. And the best part of this plan is the City wouldn't have to spend much money or none at all to make this a reality. Most or all of this can be done with private money in a way that the City retains permanent ownership of the 'project' (though not the individual 2.5 acre plots) and all its profits and revenue streams. You might be saying at this point "how can this be true?" or "how can we make all this money from this seemingly 'unusable' grazing land?". Well I can tell you that we are already doing the almost exact same thing on a smaller and less expensive scale on land that is just a few miles away from the Imperatrice property . We have already sold several 2.5 acre plots and have waiting lists for future plots we will be selling. You will likely have a barrage of well intentioned people with their ideas come try to explain why their plan is the best, etc. But Shambhala is the ONLY project of its kind in the entire bio-region. Believe it or not, there is only one eco community in this entire bio-region and it is Shambhala. Now having said that we are in the second year of our project and there are still lots to learn and do. I tell you this because in considering the potential uses of this property there will be some people suggesting to you that an eco village or intentional community should be created on this land. I am sure all of them will be well intentioned but I don't think any of them are actually creating an eco village in this area at the present time and can speak with the kind of clarity and experience that we can. I write to you today about one year earlier than I had planned. F or the last year we have Page 1 of 4 been working on a plan for the Imperatrice property. This plan is an almost mirror image of the Shambhala Eco Settlement, although there are some differences in the way that it is setup legally and with the relevant zoning laws, etc. Our land is just about 30 miles south of the Imperatrice property and is virtually the same type of terrain. Our land, which is on the Oregon-California border has been overgrazed and is in need of much ecosystem repair as is the Imperatrice property. Weare developing an eco village on our 466 acres that will rival any eco village in the world as a pinnacle of 'infinite sustainability'. Our project is over two years old and we already have a huge demand and waiting list for the 2.5 acre plots we are selling. As a matter of fact through the pre-sales of these 2.5 acre plots we were able to buy our property outright, pay cash for it and now are a fully capitalized community. In the next year many things will happen. We will successfully complete phase one of our vision which will see 22 families and individuals start to move onto our land. We will begin to create the necessary infrastructure to sustain this community. And we will raise more money to purchase additional land as our first 466 acres is almost completely filled up. The reason I am writing this letter about one year earlier than I expected is because we wanted to have the benefit of all the knowledge and experience that will surely come over the next year implementing our plan. With the two years of knowledge that we already have and the next year of 'beta testing' I am sure we could present a workable plan for the Imperatrice property. But now that the future uses of this property are being discussed I find myself writing to you in hopes to give you enough information that you would be interested in learning more. So what I would ask of all of you and what I would propose is this: · Allow the RFP process at least 6-12 months to really vet all the ideas that are presented for potential uses of the Imperatrice property. This would give us enough time to present the necessary information to Council in order to move forward with this plan if that is what Council decides. . Meet with us individually in private so we can show you our already well developed business plan with all the numbers and timelines for Shambhala to be created. Since the land is virtually the same topography and since our proposal is basically to do the same thing we are doing with the Shambhala land, it would be very educational if we were able to show you the details of our vision and plan. Then we would be able to custom tailor a plan for the Imperatrice property that builds on the one we already have. Shambhala Communities are the spearhead team for the creation of these types of Eco- Page 2 of 4 settlements all across the State of Jefferson bio-region, and our proposal will also involve the Shambhala Executive team including the Project Director and other officers. Unfortunately most of this information is still proprietary and confidential so we could not make copies available to the public quite yet. However, we are willing to show each and every one of you the details of our plan and explain what it all means for the Imperatrice property. But again this information is not yet for public consumption and needs to be shared in private. The Shambhala eco settlement is the first of its kind outside of Russia. In Russia there are over 300 large communities (create in the last 12 years!) ba~ed on this model. The model is much different that every other eco/intentional community model, which tends to have people sharing kitchens and bathrooms. Most eco/intentional communities are by definition 'communal communities'. The Shambhala model and the one we are proposing for the Imperatrice property is not based on a communal model, but rather one where each family or individual gets 2.5 acres of land. There is also a certain template contained within the model in regards to how each 2.5 acres is setup and developed that is also unique to the Shambhala model. Requirements such as planting trees in over 50% of the space, and planting fruiting and flowering tall shrubs around the borders of each space (that acts like a fence for large animals) are just a few of the template-specific details that are required to make this model ecologically sustainable. The reason for 2.5 acre plots is basically it is the minimum amount of land needed (factoring in everything else) to sustain a normal sized family economically, and not so much land that the family would have to ask for help from their neighbor who would be doing the same thing. One last thing I want to share is that much of our vision and plan has been adopted by the wildly successful model that was originally created in Russia (of all places!). In Russia the Dacha's (people and their small garden plots) grow 77% of all the vegetables, 87% of all the fruits and berries and 92% of all the potatoes for the entire country! All of this is on 10% of the total agricultural land in Russia while corporate farms use 83% to grow much less. The 300 eco villages that have been created in the last 12 years have mostly been inspired by a series of books that are now the most popular books in Russia and becoming very popular around the world. These books are called 'The Ringing Cedars of Russia' * and they are being described as 'spiritual permaculture'. All of you are familiar with permaculture and the ultra-important role it plays here locally right? The Ringing Cedars books describe ways to bring more spirituality to permaculture. This stuff is not taught at all by any of the permaculture experts here in America so that is why we have had to read the Ringing Cedars books to get this information. Although the Shambhala community and the people that are a part of it have been inspired by the Ringing Cedars books, whether or not one may have read the books does not preclude them from active, direct participation in our earth-changing project. We realize that combining politics and spirituality can be a recipe for disaster, and we don't want anyone making the assumption that our proposal for the Imperatrice property is Page 3 of4 going to end up being some kind of 'hippy dippy' spiritual commune or worse. Our plan for the Imperatrice property is grounded in business, economically solid and provable, and will be fully sustainable and profitable. If there is some kind of spiritual benefit that comes with that then so be it. In any case there is so much information to share I am having a hard time finding where to begin. As I mentioned earlier I am having this conversation about one year before I intended to. Admittedly I am a little unprepared as far as what the structure of this conversation looks like, but the details themselves are being worked out already as the Shambhala eco viilage is co-created. I will be at tonight's Council meeting and will read this letter during the comment period. Thanks for your time! Kind regards, Christopher Iverson *Here is a little more information about the Ringing Cedars of Russia books: The Ringing Cedars of Russia series has been creating a frenzy of excitement among people from all walks of life. The Series has been translated into over 20 languages and already sold over 10 million copies, with no advertising except word of mouth! After reading these books thousands of people have quit their jobs! Why? Because... . The Ringing Cedars Series contains some of the most important revelations to appear in thousands of years of human history-so significant, they are changing the course of our destiny and rocking scientific and religious circles to the core. . Powerful, myth-shattering messages in these books reveal profound wisdom grounded in ancient knowledge, expose suppressed secrets and hidden historical fact and offer a whole new paradigm for our planet's future. Bookstores across Europe have reported that the Ringing Cedars Series are their most stolen books! Page 4 of 4
