To an out-of-state developer who does not know the character of this valley, I'm sure the Spring Valley Ranch Development makes a lot of sense. To those of us who call Garfield County our first and only home, it makes no sense for many reasons. Yes, we need housing, but that housing needs to be built in higher density areas closer to the valley floor and marketed toward those of us trying to buy a first home. The golf course, the ski hill, and the dining/retail plan only add to the lunacy of this plan. Why even give this sort of idea any air?

Luke supported: Halt the Spring Valley Ranch Substantial PUD Amendment

I've lived in the valley since 2013 and am completely opposed to this development. The Roaring Fork Valley is already struggling to house essential workers and accommodate traffic on highway 82. Introducing a giant, resource-intensive development for wealthy second-home owners will only stretch our precious housing and natural resources further. The Roaring Fork Valley does not want this development. Please deny approval for this terrible initiative.

Amy supported: Halt the Spring Valley Ranch Substantial PUD Amendment

I have lived here for 18 yrs and move here for the serenity, beauty, wildlife quality of life. That would all be taken away with this development. Please do not allow this to happen to our valley

Kathy supported: Halt the Spring Valley Ranch Substantial PUD Amendment

I have been a valley resident since 1971. The proposed development should be denied on the basis of traffic impacts alone. When you add the adverse impacts of construction and development on our precious natural resources, wildlife, and quality of life, the choice is clear. Approval must be denied!

Spencer supported: Halt the Spring Valley Ranch Substantial PUD Amendment

Born in Glenwood Springs 45 years ago, I have watched the land fill up with people and degrade the ecosystems that provide habitat for millions of species. Waterflow worries are already prominent, & the amount of water waste proposed by this development is insane. These people don't understand living on the Western Slope and the lack of water in the West. There is not enough water or open space for wildlife for this to happen. Life is not all about money and catering to more rich people in our valley. They are not welcome here, with their disrespect of the area.
