The Park City Planning Commission on Wednesday night appeared to make limited progress in the talks about a major development proposal on the Park City Mountain Resort parking lots, ending deliberations for the year with significant work looming in 2021.
The panel started the discussions with prospective developer PEG Companies in May and in the early summer City Hall staffers outlined a timeline that culminated with the possibility of a vote in October. It was a schedule that appeared aggressive with the scope of a project like the one proposed at PCMR. The Planning Commission can sometimes take a year or more to review a large development proposal, and an October vote became unlikely shortly after the timeline was released.

The Provo firm planning to develop the Park City Mountain Resort parking lots is modifying some of the designs, including placing townhouses along Empire Avenue, shown. PEG Companies says the townhouses blend better with the surrounding neighborhood. The Park City Planning Commission on Wednesday is scheduled to continue the talks about the project.

Critics of plans to develop the parking lots at Park City Mountain Resort are worried about the architectural details, influencing at least two correspondences to officials in recent weeks that described the designs as resembling a monolith.
And not the kind of frenzy-causing monolith like the one that was found in remote Southern Utah.
