For many years, Copper Mountain has approached county commissioners with redevelopment plans, only to be sent back to the drawing board. Now, it’s back at the table again.

Copper will ask the county for permission to redevelop its base area. The new plan calls for several hundred new units. Tuesday, July 29 at 1:30 p.m. at the county courthouse, a public hearing will be held.

Copper wants to build a new hotel, get rid of parking on Copper Road, add open space and restore wetlands. Officials plan to use money generated from new development to improve trials and wetlands at Copper. Some Copper residents are concerned about their mountain views being blocked by new buildings.

No, it’s not the Water Tower Place of Chicago, but it will make Frisco look a little more posh.

Developers are scraping an old, ugly shopping strip on Summit Boulevard and Granite Street in order to build Water Tower Place.

The complex will include five buildings that comprise 42 residences, as well as commercial space of 14,000 square feet. The two- and three-bedroom condos are expected to sell for $600,000 to $900,000. As part of the building deal, developers will dedicate eight affordable housing units for locals.

It also will be the town’s first green building, certified by Green Globe Standard. Construction should start at the end of July. A new road will connect Granite Street to 8th Avenue.
