Breckenridge Town Council voted 6-1 to hold a hearing on the Breckenridge Grand Vacations gondola lot development master plan at its Tuesday, Oct. 26, meeting.
Council member Dick Carleton voted for the hearing because he disagrees with some of the analysis from the Breckenridge Planning Commission, which approved the project.
“This is a really important project, and I think we need to make sure that we have plenty of time to vet it properly,” Carleton said.
Council members Erin Gigliello, Dennis Kuhn and Carol Saade also voted yes, but Mayor Eric Mamula voted no, saying it will be difficult to argue against the planning commission’s approval.
“I would rather discuss this on (a) site-specific (level) when it comes to that or see what planning commission does then,” Mamula said. “ … It is the council’s option to do this, so nobody’s doing anything wrong. We all have different opinions on it.”
Town Council will hold a hearing to review the master plan at its Nov. 9 meeting. The hearing will include presentations from staff and the applicant as well as public comment for and against the project.
