WHAT'S NEXT?
Upcoming Phases of the Southwest Area Conceptual Plan
The Town of Telluride and the Telluride Housing Authority are studying the feasibility of an affordable housing development and parking structure on Lot L of the Bachman Village Subdivision.
The Town Council will be investing in future public improvements for the Southwest Area that include enhancements to the roads and sidewalks, the river trail network, and the Mahoney Bridge replacement. The consultants hired for the conceptual plan developed a circulation analysis of the Southwest area to define constraints and opportunities where improvements could be accomplished. The analysis was the basis for design options for improvements to Mahoney Drive, Pacific Avenue, Tomboy Drive, the Mahoney Bridge, and the intersection at Colorado Avenue and Davis Street. Before the Town moves forward, additional feedback from Town residents will assist the Town Council on future investment decisions.
Southwest Conceptual Area Plan - Background and Information
The Town Council approved the Southwest Conceptual Area plan at its regular meeting on July 13, 2021.
The Telluride Town Council initiated the conceptual planning process in 2019 to determine how best to utilize its publicly owned land in the southwest area of the Town. Over the years, the Town and Telluride Housing Authority assembled land that included areas south of the Valley Floor along Black Bear Road, and areas extending eastward to encompass the Shandoka and Carhenge parking areas. The consultants DHM Design were selected to develop a Conceptual Plan for the publicly owned land and the surrounding streets and pedestrian network.
The planning area includes the publicly-owned properties that are surrounded by private developments, the Telluride Ski area (Lift 7), and unincorporated county land. Currently, uses within the Town-owned parcels include open space, surface parking, deed-restricted affordable and employee housing, river park, and road rights of way.
