Storage, Instead Of Homes, May Come To Breckenridge
The town of Breckenridge wanted townhome development, but it might be getting 60,000 square feet of storage units, instead.
Kurt Ave and Kirk Mickelsen think it’s more profitable to build storage on 4 acres they own on Highway 9, across from 7-Eleven. If they built townhomes, more than half would have to be affordable housing, according to town guidelines. So, in essence, the town’s stringent affordable housing demands on new developers are shooting both parties in the foot, and Ave and Mickelsen have decided not to play the game.
The county approved the Super Storage in 2007, despite the town’s concerns. Ave and Mickelsen plan to start construction by mid-fall. They say ther’s a demand for the units.
