New law could override county’s vote against wastewater facility at Kane Creek development

On Tuesday, Grand County Commissioners voted to deny a conditional use permit that would enable developers to build a wastewater treatment facility for the new Kane Creek housing complex. The vote was a big win for local organizers opposed to the project, which is under construction in an undeveloped corridor of the Colorado River. The battle isn’t over yet, though. Organizers with Kane Creek Development Watch are worried a new state law could override the county’s authority by granting developers municipal oversight on their property. We also hear from KHOL about a new Mexican community center that hopes to connect Jackson’s Hispanic residents with their roots.
