Fight over Battle Mountain: Minturn will seek outside legal advice before considering developer's proposal

The seven member Minturn Town Council unanimously approved a $20,000 spend on legal services Wednesday after weighing the proposal from developers of the Battle Mountain project on June 16 and tabling the effort. Along with continuing the consideration of the proposal to a date unspecified, the council also asked staff for more documentation regarding how much the developer owes to the town.

Minturn Town Council members did not weigh a proposal from Battle Mountain developers for money owed to the town on Wednesday, nor are they likely to any time soon.
Instead, elected officials have decided to hire outside legal services to examine the town’s options when it comes to the funds it owed from the large development agreement and annexation of areas of unincorporated land surrounding town which was approved by voters in 2008. The town went through with the annexation, but the development never materialized.
