 A campaign to make Keystone join the ranks of Breckenridge, Frisco, Silverthorne and Dillon by becoming its own town is forging ahead — with a vote scheduled March 28 vote that will determine if the roughly 1,200-person community will become a home rule municipality or remain unincorporated and governed by Summit County. 

Should voters choose to do so, Keystone could become the newest town in the state following in the footsteps of the Front Range communities of Castle Pines in 2008 and Centennial in 2001.

Registered voters in Keystone will be asked three questions on their March ballot: whether to incorporate or not; if a charter commission should be formed to write the town’s rules and who should sit on that commission. 

A meeting was held Feb. 3 to finalize the ballot order of 13 Keystone residents vying for a seat on the charter commission, according to Keystone Incorporation Committee President Ken Riley.
