Vail Resorts on Friday made its first response to a proposed class action lawsuit filed in December on behalf of three former and current employees at its Beaver Creek Resort.
The lawsuit alleges that the company, which operates 34 ski resorts in North America, has repeatedly violated federal labor laws as well as state labor laws in Colorado, California, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Washington, New York, Vermont, Michigan and Utah.
Filed in U.S. District Court for the District of Colorado on behalf of Randy Dean Quint, John Linn and Mark Molina, the lawsuit seeks state class action status and federal collective claim status for current and former employees who worked for Vail Resorts over the past three years.

Town of Vail officials have been working for more than a year on a plan for alternatives to the controversial Booth Heights workforce housing project, a complicated idea. Things have become more complicated in the last few months.
In December, Vail Resorts “paused” its participation in three-way talks which included the town, the resort company and Triumph Development to find alternatives to Booth Heights. That announcement roughly coincided with Triumph canceling its purchase contract for the 23-acre parcel in East Vail.
In January, Vail Resorts Vice President of Mountain Planning Kyle Griffith in a letter to town officials stated the company’s intent to develop housing on the site.
