Silverthorne approves affordable housing
It looks like the 51.5 acres of Smith Ranch will be filled with about 220 multi- and single-family, affordable homes, thanks to preliminary approval by the town of Silverthorne. Named the Red Peak Village, the development would be the first of its kind in Silverthorne real estate. The planning commission unanimously recommended the town to deny developer Tim Crane’s affordable housing proposal because it didn’t include enough parking and it seemed too dense, but the town approved it unanimously.
Mayor Dave Koop commented that the economy would not grow without the housing. The development would include a park, daycare, trails and open space, as well as market-priced properties.
