BASALT- — A trailer park near the heart of Basalt could be redeveloped with about 112,000 square feet of buildings that include a hotel, retail shops, offices for businesses and nonprofit groups, and classrooms, according to a land-use proposal submitted to the town government.
The Roaring Fork Community Development Corp., a nonprofit organization, purchased the Pan and Fork Mobile Home Park last year and sold half of the property to the town. The organization will tackle the redevelopment on its 2.32 acres closest to Two River Road. The town will convert its slightly larger site into a park on the banks of the Roaring Fork River.
Organization President Michael McVoy stressed the plan is likely to change as talks evolve with town officials, a potential development partner and hydrologists examining the site, part of which is prone to flooding.
