Town Council continues Lot 109R hotel project PUD amendment application to August

At its regularly scheduled meeting on Thursday, June 15, the Mountain Village Town Council voted 6 to 1 to continue the pending application for a Major Planned Unit Development (PUD) Amendment to the existing Lot 109R PUD to the August 17, 2023 regular Town Council meeting.

At its January 19 meeting, Town Council voted 6-1 (with Council Member Patrick Berry dissenting) to direct staff to draft a resolution of denial for Council’s subsequent consideration.

At its March 17 meeting, Council considered the motion and associated resolution to deny the application. After hearing from the applicant, Town Council directed staff to work with the applicant so that the applicant could better address outstanding questions raised in the staff report and returned to Council on June 15.

The applicants still faced a handful of outstanding unresolved items, which were enumerated in the meeting, and Council ultimately chose to give the applicants more time to work those items out before making a final motion to approve on first reading or deny. The item is expected to return to Town Council in August, and the meeting will be noticed through Town channels.

The project applicant is Tiara Telluride, LLC which owns the Mountain Village Hotel site, located where North Village Center Parking lot currently sits. The 109R PUD (also known as Mountain Village Hotel PUD) was first approved in 2010 and has received three PUD amendments that extended its vesting period and is now set to expire in September 2023.

The luxury hotel brand Six Senses has provided a letter of intent to operate the proposed hotel. The project proposes 50 hotbeds, 20 condominiums, 31 lodge units, 18 employee dorms, 2 employee apartments, restaurants, conference space, hotel amenity spaces and improvements to Village Center plazas.
