Message: I strongly oppose the proposed development by Harvest Roaring Fork LLC for
several important reasons. This project poses a significant threat to the ecological,
cultural, and rural character of our region. At the scale proposed, it would permanently
alter the natural landscape, strain already overburdened infrastructure, and compromise
the safety and quality of life for both residents and wildlife.
Our valley is already saturated with high-end housing, while affordable housing for
essential workers remains critically insufficient. For too long, we have failed to prioritize the
housing needs of the people who sustain our communities. As a result, traffic congestion
has become not only frustrating but unsafe, with more workers forced to commute long
distances, and sit in miles and miles of gridlock trying to get home, and to work.
If this parcel is to be developed, it should reflect a community-centered vision—one that
prioritizes genuinely affordable housing and is scaled appropriately to protect wildlife
habitat, scarce water resources, and roadways that are already operating beyond capacity
at peak times.
Please use your leadership position to require the developers to prioritize the needs of the
valley-wide community. The developers can do well by doing good. Please be the voice for
our needs, not theirs.
Thank you.
