Is it even still valid? August 2023 document. A lot can change in 9 months on this thing.winter wrote: ↑Apr 30th, '24, 10:56 A lot of new details here about what is proposed:

Yup, lots of housing that people in the state of VT could use right now... NOT! Let's tie up the few trades people left on non-work force, common person housing. Sounds like it would have a negative impact on the housing crisis!KingsFourMan wrote: ↑Apr 30th, '24, 11:49 Interesting document.
The schedule on the last page shows the phase 1 village construction starting in September of this year which assumes that the ACT250 amendment process will take 6 months as shown (Feb - Jul). Seems unlikely but they must have gotten some feedback from the ACT250 people about what to expect with respect to timing. There has been a lot of talk lately about speeding up the process to help ease Vermont's housing shortage. That being said, it's hard to imagine it starting that soon. Probably because it's been talked about for the past 4-5 decades.
And an ugly one at that.....Big Bob wrote:Starting to look more like a city than a village.
Thanks to everyone who joined us on the slopes this season! It was great to see so many of you enjoying the mountain and riding the new Mountaineer lift to the summit. We know that you’re all here for amazing skiing and riding, and this summer, we’re going to focus our efforts on gearing up for next season by pre-emptively maintaining our snowmaking infrastructure and reconnecting snowmaking on Tightrope, maintaining lifts, trails, and buildings to minimize any disruptions or impacts during the winter season.
What this means though, is that we won’t be able to bring back public summer attractions this year, and we’ll be decommissioning the mountain coaster and zip lines due to aging infrastructure. With the removal of the mountain coaster, we will be bringing back the Hunky Dory trail for natural skiing and riding. We remain committed to reopening Attitash as a summer destination and want to make sure that when we do, we’re able to give it 100% and deliver an experience that will be most complementary to everything that the valley has to offer.
We are excited to formally announce the return of Oktoberfest on Saturday, October 12 – more details coming soon.
We have many great projects going on this summer including painting all our detachable lift terminals with Attitash blue, we will be putting new carpeting in our lodges, and we will be reconnecting the snowmaking on Tightrope.
Agreed, I'm not a fan either. Hopefully the village design isn't too far out there like a lot of other Safdie designs that we have seen.hillbangin wrote: ↑May 1st, '24, 08:02And an ugly one at that.....Big Bob wrote:Starting to look more like a city than a village.

It looks like over half of K1 parking is gone too. No more Bay 1 and no more tailgating. You probably won't be able to get past the intersection of K Road and East Mountain Rd without some type of parking pass.Southside_Bobby wrote: ↑Apr 30th, '24, 11:38 The master plan is frightening. I have long felt that the initial village will likely be the least of our worries, and this confirms it.
"Vale", "Snowdon Glades", "Yodeler's Run", "Snowshed Woods" (looks like an additional lift in the Snowshed/Northbrook area).
Even if the additional SEVEN development areas beyond the initial Snowshed/Rams development take another decade to actually happen, this place is going to be a giant construction zone for a very long time.
Although K1 parking appears to remain, Vale lots and SUPERSTAR ACCESS ROAD look to be gone.
