27 Planning meetings later Copper Mountain ski resort is continuing to pursue their comprehensive development strategy including high country Colorado Real Estate that the resort initiated in 2001. Today Copper Mountain Resort, only six miles from Frisco real estate will present a plan to shift just under 600 mountain real estate units of unbuilt density in order to add a large condo-hotel as well as switching 42,000 or so square feet of unbuilt commercial space allowance to another larger 72,000 square feet located in a high pedestrian traffic area for new shops, restaurants and customer facilities. All located within easy access from your Frisco Homes.
Copper Mountain proposes to utilize a percentage of their mountain real estate transfer assessment (Frisco Real Estate sales also have a transfer tax) for community purposes. The amount suggested is .25% of the 1.5% assessment and some of the community purposes would include child care, housing (employee and affordable) as well as open space. Frisco Colorado offers similar open space.
Some of the original items proposed, such as the mountain real estate condo hotel slated for a flood prone zone along Tenmile Creek, a creek that runs through Frisco Colorado, would be moved to a proposed location in the Union Creek area. Other items changed consist of the timing of the building of employee housing for example.
Update June 16, 2008.
Copper Mountain still moving forward with a recent green light from the Tenmile Plannin Commission to build close to 600 new Colorado real estate properties as well as some changes to the existing master plan all provides Copper Mountain with some 'CO real estate' breathing room until the topic goes to the county commissioners later this summer for their final stamp of approval.
The changes still consist of distribution of yet to be built density to be spread out differently throughout the various neighborhoods, stream restoration, more dedicated open space as well as affordable housing. The new development will help create funds for better trail connections, wetlands restoration as well as improved water quality in the Ten Mile Creek.
The resort still plans on earmarking one quarter of one percent of the transfer fee to go toward affordable housing, child care and open space.
