BASALT – — A Basalt councilman and mayoral candidate won’t participate this spring in reviewing the biggest development proposal to come through the town in several years because of a conflict of interest.
Councilman Glenn Rappaport said he worked as a consultant to help prepare the redevelopment plan for the Pan and Fork Mobile Home Park. The nonprofit Roaring Fork Community Development Corp. wants to replace the trailer park with a hotel, retail shops, restaurants, housing and a campus for nonprofit organizations. The proposal must include a plan to provide replacement housing for the 38 mobile home that will be removed from the site. The property is in the heart of Basalt between Midland Avenue and Taqueria el Nopal.
