Show Park City News Thursday, April 7, 1983 Page Ai Board of Adjustments extends permit for Cornice The Park City Board of Adjustments voted Tuesday to extend a permit another six months for the troubled Cornice project. The approval ap-proval is for a modification to a nonconforming use. Bettilyon Construction, present claimants to the property, is looking for buyers. The company bought the Cornice at a sheriff's sale about six months ago. Last year, then-owner Monty Gibson successfully asked the city to change the use of the building. Instead of the original configuration of 10 two- and three-bedroom units plus 6,000 square feet of commercial space, Gibson obtained a permit allowing Quadriga, Alpine Meadows to join forces in ski area Two development corporations cor-porations with Park City ties have announced plans to build a ski area near Tahoe. Cal Cowher, Merle Huseth and Bob Wells of Quadriga are joining forces with Nick Badami of Alpine Meadows to build a destination ski resort which will be called "The Galena." When completed, The Galena will have a capacity of 10,000 skiers per day. According Ac-cording to Bob Wells of Quadriga's Utah office in Park City, "That is equivalent to today's capacities of the Park City Ski Area and Deer Valley combined." The project is a joint venture ven-ture involving the Nell J. Redfield Trust, Quadriga of Nevada and the Alpine Development Corporation. Alpine Development is a subsidiary of Alpine Meadows which runs the Park City Ski Area. The partners part-ners hope to begin construction construc-tion in 1984. The Alpine Development Corporation has been studying the ski potential of the area for three years. The Galena's proposed location is at Mt. Rose, 25 minutes away from the Reno airport and 20 minutes from Lake Tahoe. The 10,000 acres included in-cluded in the development range in altitude from 7,400 feet to 10,400 feet. J.J. Johnson and Associates is working on the master plan which is in the process of gaining regulatory approval in Washoe County. "In addition to being planned as a destination ski area, it will also be a summer resort with golfing and equestrian facilities," said Wells. 20 one-bedroom units and 3,000 square feet of commercial. commer-cial. City Planner Dave Boesch said Bettilyon has asked for an extension of this permit to retain the project's marketable value. The board stipulated that city planners would make a progress report to them at the end of six months, said Boesch. If no construction progress has taken place, the board would take a hard look before extending the permit. It would probably hold a hearing to consider revoking the Cornice's nonconforming status, he said. Barney Bettilyon told the Newspaper his company bought the property at sheriff's sale for about $929,000. According to law, developer Gibson or another buyer could gain the property proper-ty back by paying that amount during a "redemption "redemp-tion period." But that period runs out on April 26. After that, Bettilyon will own the project. He said he has talked to a number of possible buyers, and received re-ceived one promising verbal offer. Monty Gibson told the Newspaper he is "working on a few things" before the April 26 deadline. The Cornice is located to the east of the Park City Ski Area plaza. It is the focus of a federal court suit filed by Gibson, in which he contends that Park City Municipal Corp. and the nearby Park City Village conspired together to-gether to hinder his project. 9 rv 'liiiiff' 'ii'ii'iiiin ii TO LI Hfl'lSfl il'f'-aif rt-S.itf'-wJ BIRTHDAY STARS Get ready for spring fling At 5 p.m. on Friday, April 15, the ChamberBureau will hold its quarterly membership social to celebrate the best Park City ski season to date.
