ASPEN TIMES: Basalt Development Projects Could Add 60 Affordable Units

Two development projects that could combine to provide 60 affordable-housing residences are headed to review by the Basalt Town Council this fall.

Habitat for Humanity and the Roaring Fork School District are teaming to propose 27 affordable-housing units by Basalt High School. The Town Council gave an informal nod on a critical aspect of the land-use approvals Tuesday night. The five members of the board who were present said they favor expanding the town’s urban growth boundary to accommodate the project.
