After nearly two years of planning, engagement, and careful design, the Sketch Plan for the Whetstone Community Housing project was unanimously approved by the Gunnison County Board of Commissioners in February 2023. Since then, the project team has been working with the Town of Crested Butte on utilities and seeking qualified development partners to support the next phase of work. Currently, five development teams are shortlisted and invited to refine their proposals and present them to the public and the project team.
Thank you to all community members who were able to attend the open house on May 10th, 2023 at the Center for the Arts in Crested Butte.
