The proposal presented to the planning commission is a master plan for the three lots featuring condominium, townhome, commercial, hotel and workforce housing uses. The plan addresses roadway and pedestrian improvements, including a roundabout at the intersection of Park Avenue and French Street and a parking structure on the North Gold Rush Lot. A gondola is proposed to accompany the parking structure to transport people from the parking garage to the North Gondola Lot.
Kulick said the recommended use of the North Gondola Lot is lodging or commercial uses per the land-use district. The Breckenridge Grand Vacations project proposes townhomes and three mixed-use buildings on the lot. The recommended use of the South Gold Rush Lot is residential, and townhomes are proposed. The recommended use of the North Gold Rush Lot — which is where the 1,150-space parking structure, gondola and workforce housing units are proposed — is also residential use.

Town planner Chris Kulick said the site is one of the largest undeveloped tracts in the center of town. He explained that the proposal came in the form of a master plan so that the project could be evaluated in one go rather than separate phases of evaluation of the three parcels.
