We are a group of Park City residents who are members of RRAD (Responsible Resort Area Development). We have created this petition to encourage the Park City Planning Commission and the Park City City Council to vote “NO” on the approval of the current PEG Development application for the development of the four (4) surface parking lots at Park City Mountain Resort (PCMR). While we are not opposed to every development project in Park City, we believe PEG Development’s proposed plan is not beneficial to local residents and will in fact have a negative impact on our overall quality of life.

Below is a brief overview of just a few of the concerns the residents of Park City have regarding this proposal at the base of Park City Mountain Resort. 

How will we be impacted?

One MAJOR outcome of this development is it will directly impact every single resident moving around Park City; the proposed development will generate even more traffic.

Additional justification for signing this petition:

• MONSTER buildings topping out at 103’ in an area zoned for 35’
• Reliance on City, School District and County resources for parking of Resort Operations funded by taxpayer dollars
• Unsafe and insufficient pedestrian access and connectivity
• Insufficient transit and shuttle centers with no room for expansion
• Insufficient drop-off/pick-up areas for visitors (locals and tourists) to the Resort
• Affordable/Employee housing proposed amounts to ONLY approximately 30% of the new jobs created
• Only 6% of the four parcels for development will be open space; the remaining 54% of open space is from the mountain / ski runs

Development of a 249-room hotel, a conference space, approximately 150 market-rate condos, minimal new affordable housing units, and additional commercial space will only serve to increase the traffic in Park City. Traffic is already a serious issue; our streets and roads are at capacity. Our current infrastructure was not built to handle the traffic we all experience today. This is already evidenced by significant backups along 224, 248, Deer Valley Drive, and our local neighborhood streets. Getting to work, school, appointments or anywhere in Park City is a challenge. The proposed plan is not a solution.

If you agree we’ve reached our breaking point and the proposed plan is not a solution, please sign this petition today!
