Copper development is still on hold

Copper Mountain wants to develop its base area more, but the county commissioners are slowing progress by not deciding one way or the other. Another hearing will be held at 1:30 p.m. Tuesday at Mountain Plaza at Copper.
Commissioners are mainly concerned that there won’t be enough parking after Copper Mountain develops 420 more units. Resort officials said Copper might talk about building a parking structure in the future to solve the problem. Questions over how development would affect recpath construction from Copper toward Fremont Pass also raised concerns.
