The open house is the first in a series of three within the 4-month MOU period. At this time, they are specifically designed to understand how involved the town of Mt. Crested Butte is willing to be in the development as a whole and the different opportunities and amenities that the town may gain from the project.

The top categories for both “Opportunities” and “Concerns” were determined by five or more comments on post its related to the category. The main “Opportunities” identified were Recreation, Trails, Dog Park and Post Office. Recreation opportunities included ice skating, swimming, bike paths, frisbee golf course, soccer fields, and a summer luge run, among others.

The top categories under “Concerns” included Traffic, Light Pollution and things relating to Snodgrass. Traffic is a “huge concern” on Gothic because it is “always too busy.” The light pollution category included light in general as well as concerns such as “headlight wash on residences from cars leaving.” Finally, concerns in relation to Snodgrass range from the “trail road width,” to “trail access” and “impact of residential use on Snodgrass.” 4 Top Identified Oppertunities Top Identified Concerns 14 10 9 12 8 10 7 8 6 5 6 4 4 3 2 2 1 0 0 Number Number of References on Post Its Number Number on Post Its References of Recreation Trails Dog Park Post Office Traffic Light Pollution Snodgrass Category Category Appendix 1) Post it Comments - Opportunities Opportunities Category Comment on Post it Affordable Tiny homes for affordable housing Affordable Affordable office space for local non-profits Chairlift Lift to base of Prospect/Gold link Community Community Room Community Social center for Mt.
