Gill housing proposal denied

The Teton County Board of County Commissioners has denied the Gill family's request for a 74-acre upzone intended to pave the way for a 300-plus unit housing development on the Jackson Hole Hereford Ranch.

The decision caps an eight-month odyssey that saw the Gill family and members of the community who supported the project square off with housing advocates and conservationists.

The Gills and those in support sought a speedy approval of the rezone as a way to address the housing crisis and move toward other regulatory approvals on the way toward breaking ground.
