Meeting:

Glenwood hotel plan would require about $450,000 housing fee-in-lieu

Jackson’s Planning Commission is set to recommend a development plan that would make the owner pay an estimated $450,000 housing mitigation fee-in-lieu for a fractional required unit before any building permit is issued.

The Town of Jackson Planning and Zoning Commission is set to review a development plan for 210 and 230 N. Glenwood Street that would require the property owner to pay a fee-in-lieu housing mitigation payment estimated at about $450,000 for the remaining fractional requirement (0.989 of a unit), and to pay it before the town issues any building permit, staff says in its recommended conditions of approval Planning and Zoning Commission Regular Meeting Agenda Packet. Staff notes the figure is an estimate and says the final mitigation requirement and fee would be recalculated during building permit review based on final floor plans, verified floor area, and recorded housing-credit transfers.

The last clear action in the record on this project is at sketch plan stage. In March 2024, the Planning and Zoning Commission voted to recommend approval of Sketch Plan P24-018 for the “Glenwood Hotel” at 210 and 230 N. Glenwood Street Planning and Zoning Commission Minutes.

On the broader policy question behind fees like this, a 2026 town and county housing mitigation policy review packet reiterates that fee-in-lieu is the last option, after building units or using other credits Joint Information Meeting Housing Mitigation Policy Agenda Packet.
