Greetings THINC,
The image below shows the devastating Treasure Hill development plans. The Sweeneys and their partner are seeking approval to build more than 1.1M square feet on the landmark Treasure Hill in Historic Old Town. With your help we can stop this from happening!
The current proposed development includes a sprawling complex with multiple condo/hotel towers over 10 stories high, large conference center, retail shops, restaurants, and a large underground parking garage. It also includes massive excavation scars (over 120 feet high) that will be visible from all over town.
The next Planning Commission meeting to address the proposed Treasure Hill development is set for tomorrow:
Date: Wednesday, October 12th
Time: Meeting starts 5:30PM
Place: Jim Santy Auditorium at 1255 Park Avenue
We need a large turnout again and hope you can make it. Our attendance and participation at these meetings is critical. If approved the proposed Treasure Hill development would significantly change Park City forever and have a detrimental impact on the quality of life and the overall historical integrity of our town.
Meeting Topics/Details:
CUP Criterion no. 1 Size and Scale of the location of the Site
CUP Criterion no. 9 Usable open Space
The project received an approval from the City way back in 1986 for 413,000 square feet. Now 30 years later, the applicant is trying to get nearly 1.2M square feet of total development approved.
