JACKSON, Wyo. — The Jackson Hole Chamber of Commerce reminds community members that the written comment period for the Northern South Park Proposal closes at the end of business day on Thursday, Feb. 8.
The Chamber cites housing as the community’s number one issue, and has submitted its own comment that the project should be approved.
“No single solution will ever meet the deficiency of housing we have in the community,” the Chamber said via press release. “However, not approving this project will continue exacerbating an already dire housing situation.”
On Oct. 11, 2023, the Teton County Planning and Building Services Department released the public draft of zoning regulations for the Northern South Park Neighborhood Plan implementation project for review.
These zoning regulations create new sections within the County’s Land Development Regulations (LDRs) that describe the requirements for the development process, design standards and housing program for future development within Northern South Park.
“The Plan prioritizes a mix of housing types, multi-modal streets and integrated open spaces to support a complete neighborhood vision,” Town and County wrote in the Draft Plan. “A core policy directive from the Plan is a minimum deed restricted housing requirement.”
Comments can be submitted to a Teton County Commissioner:
- Luther Props: lpropst@tetoncountywy.gov
- Natalia Macker: nmacker@tetoncountywy.gov
- Greg Epstein: gepstein@tetoncountywy.gov
- Mark Newcomb: mnewcomb@tetoncountywy.gov
- Wes Gardner: wgardner@tetoncountywy.gov
The public is invited to review the Northern South Park Neighborhood Plan and Draft Regulations.
