GRAYSON WESTPARK RECORD Some of the land pictured in the background, west of Silver Creek Road in Silver Creek is for sale. Anderson Development recently sued Summit County and its Board of Adjustment over some permit denials regarding the property and now a broker for the company is soliciting buyers. By PATRICK PARKINSON Of the Record staff Summit County and Anderson Development continue to fight in court, meanwhile, a broker for the developer is trying to sell land Anderson and others own in Silver Creek - the future site of more commercial development in the Snyderville Basin. "We envision a mixed-use community," com-munity," said Jeremy Jensen, a principal broker for Anderson Development. Though Anderson sued Summit County and its Board of Adjustment (BOA) in September. Jensen said the developers are confident that the litigation will be resolved. The developers requested the county allow them to move water off their property on the south side of Silver Creek, near Interstate 80 west of Silver Creek Road. The company requested an agricultural exemption, an excavation excava-tion and grading permit and a low impact permit to move the water, all of which were denied by the county. Developers say the water started running onto the land when nearby freeway improvements improve-ments were completed several years ago. But some Silver Creek residents resi-dents disagree and claim the water is part of wetlands in the area and shouldn't be tampered with. When Summit County Community Development Director Dave Allen denied Andersons low impact permit request in the fall, he stated that he did not have enough information regarding the potential impact of moving the water. The Board of Adjustment upheld that denial and on Sept. 29 Anderson Development sued. "... the BOA failed to provide just and fair treatment in the administration of local zoning ordinances ... the BOA failed to ensure that substantial justice was done to Anderson Development at their appeal hearing before the BOA," states the company's complaint against the county. The lawsuit claims that all three applications were illegally denied. Responding to the lawsuit, attorneys for Summit County and the Board of Adjustment deny Anderson's claims that county officials offi-cials acted inappropriately in denying the permit and exemption requests and that the BOA wrongly wrong-ly upheld the denials. In the suit, Anderson Development requests that Third District Court Judge Bruce Lubcck overturn' the BO As decision deci-sion to uphold denial of the agricultural agri-cultural exemption, grading and low impact permits and issue the permits. Attorneys for Summit County counter that the court doesn't have jurisdiction to review a Board of Adjustment decision. The county and BOA request the court "dismiss all Anderson's claims against the county with prejudice," according to the answer to the suit filed in court. Despite potential legal hurdles, Jensen said Anderson is searching for buyers interested in purchasing some of the Silver Creek ground or a "build to suit" opportunity. "We definitely have the land available for sale," he said. With proposals needing to go before the Snyderville Basin . Planning Commission, Jensen said it is too early to comment on density den-sity or which businesses might move in. There are about 100 acres available, including 60 commercial acres and approximately 35 acres for residential development in the project. A car wash, restaurants and other retail establishments have all expressed interest. Jensen said. When asked about big-box retailers retail-ers who might be on the list, Jensen said. "I think the field's really wide open." Large land purchases in the area will cost roughly $8.50 per square-foot. The price would increase oil smaller .deals to about , $15 per square-foot. Jensen said,, adding that itrchitoets are already discussing what might be appropriate appropri-ate development in Silver Creek. "We've got a lot of people interested inter-ested ... 1 think we will have some great development there," Jensen said. But the public must still have its say. "We definitely want to work with the community ... The community com-munity has a huge input in this process," Jensen said.
