MINTURN — The company developing a private ski resort in Minturn has scaled back the original developer’s plans in response to the recession and concerns about how much water it would use.
Canada-based Crave Real Estate removed Ginn Co.’s plans for a golf course, hotel and two-thirds of the commercial space from designs for Battle Mountain. The new plan envisions the town providing most of the restaurants and businesses for the resort community. It also is reducing the number of planned ski lifts from 13 to four or five.
