Development site monitoring register

A Primary Target that achieves a qualifying cluster score (T1 Valid ≥ 150 on the [[geographic-co-location-methodology|five-degree scoring system]]) has demonstrated the co-location conditions that Woodfine requires: Home Depot and Costco within the primary radius threshold, and qualifying Tertiary Target presence within the tertiary radius threshold. The cluster score verifies that the commercial environment is correct for a Woodfine Building.

**Correction (2026-08-02, verified against this article's own cited sibling docs,
[[geographic-co-location-methodology]] and [[gis-cluster-scoring-glossary]]):** the
conditions just described — both Home Depot and Costco present, plus a qualifying
Tertiary Target — define a **Fourth-Degree Cluster**, not "T1 Valid." Per the glossary,
T1 Valid (score ≥ 150) is explicitly the entry-level tier with "Primary Target
presence with partial co-location confirmation" — the qualifying bar is materially
lower than what's described here. A cluster meeting the description actually given
would score well above the T2 Hub (≥450) or T3 Apex (≥700) thresholds. Same mismatch
recurs below in the re-entry criteria ("maintained or improved... at or above the T1
Valid threshold"). **Flagged, not resolved** — needs a decision on which tier
threshold this register is actually meant to gate re-entry at, not a mechanical
label swap.

Adjacent land availability is a separate condition. A site can have the correct co-location configuration and the correct demographic profile, but lack a parcel adjacent to the Primary Target that is available for acquisition at the time of assessment. This is particularly common in [[about-regional-markets-system|Regional Markets]] where the [[power-centres|Power Centre]] footprint has been fully developed and surrounding parcels are occupied by existing buildings whose owners are not current sellers.

The Monitoring Register preserves the investment made in scoring and profiling these sites rather than discarding them from the dataset. The site's qualifying cluster characteristics are not expected to change — the Primary Target is typically a large-format retailer with a long-term lease and substantial capital invested in the site — and the probability that adjacent land will eventually become available is a function of normal commercial real estate turnover in the surrounding area.
