Move the rodeo
Reading the June 7 News&Guide once again reminds me that itâs time for Jackson and Teton County to get on with solving our housing problem.
Move the rodeo. Make a deal with developers south of town by giving them more density in exchange for a permanent home for the rodeo. Then, do a joint venture with housing developers for real workforce housing on the current rodeo grounds. How about 600 units of affordable condos and apartments?! And how about a nice-looking garden-style development, not like the ugly, view-destroying monster going up on Broadway near Bubbaâs?
Arguments to save the rodeo in its current location (tourists wonât come to town or letâs save Jacksonâs history) should no longer drive this decision. Affordable housing for our workers close to their jobs is critical now. I know some smart, retired, experienced developers who would volunteer, without pay, to get something done.
