El Jebel Crossing

SUMMARY OF CONCERNS

An immediate concern is the massive El Jebel Crossing development, proposed by the Aspen Skiing Company (Aspen One) for 111 oversized workforce rental units on a 20-acre parcel adjacent to Blue Lake. We have reviewed the proposed development and have the following concerns.

Key Issues of Concern:

• Incompatible Scale: Construction of three-story multi-family buildings that are visually incompatible with the low-profile, single-family community.

• Flawed Traffic & Public Safety:

  • Technical Discrepancy: We believe there is a need for further discussion regarding the traffic standards applied (specifically ITE 223). Utilizing a more conservative data set would likely provide a more accurate forecast of the impact on our local infrastructure.

  • LOS Failure: The project will push key intersections, including our exit at JW Drive/Highway 82, into a Level of Service (LOS) F failure.

Recommended Compromise: We are likely to urge the County to require the applicant to scale the project back to a maximum of 50–60 units and limit the building height to a compatible 1 or 2 stories.-----Your Immediate Action is Needed.Public participation is a vital part of the Eagle County planning process. We encourage all residents to share their perspectives on how this project aligns with our community character by emailing planningcomments@eaglecounty.us  The increase in traffic will affect all Missouri Heights residents who use El Jebel Road.

The Roaring Fork School District Housing Master Plan prioritized JW Drive for a  competing, prioritized public need that is being put at risk by the proposed development.
