Eagle County to review Wolcott plan at special meeting

EAGLE COUNTY — The Eagle County Board of Commissioners will continue their multi-part review of the Wolcott Planned Unit Development preliminary plan during a special meeting Wednesday.

The Wolcott PUD encompasses 373 acres and includes mixed-use residential, commercial and municipal development on the Wolcott valley floor and on the south side of Interstate 70. As proposed, the development would include 577 residential dwelling units, 144,500 square feet of commercial space, 138 acres of private and passive open space, and an emergency services facility.

The review is scheduled to take all day, beginning at 8:30 a.m. at the Eagle County Building.



A lunch recess is anticipated around noon, and the board is scheduled to hear an additional agenda item unrelated to Wolcott at 4 p.m. Wednesday’s meeting will be aired live on ecotv18, as well as streamed live and archived for later viewing online at http://www.ecotv18.com.
