Applicant Jerry Champlin, dba BV Basecamp LLC is seeking to build a multi-family housing project comprised of shipping container living units as well as working 'pods' and common areas at 326 E. Arkansas Street. This application entails two distinct applications and review processes:
Minor subdivision - to create a separate lot for the building to sit on
Major site plan review - required for a building of this type and size
This property is currently zoned MU-2. The applicant is not requesting any variances as a part of this project. The project includes a proposal to building 18 dwelling units as well as associated laundry and common elements. The existing single family home is proposed to stay, with the additional buildings being built of repurposed shipping containers.
This application will require a public hearing before the Planning & Zoning Commission, which is scheduled for June 1st (see information at the right).
This case will also require a Public Improvements Agreement to be approved by the Board of Trustees.
The applicant submitted their complete application(s) and paid the corresponding fees.

These agencies include Sangre de Cristo Electric, Atmos Energy, the Buena Vista School District, and many more parties. Each party is given approximately 3 weeks to review the application and provide comment.
Comments can include things like special considerations from that party's perspective, notes on infrastructure or easements needed for the project, or other questions and concerns for the applicant and staff to consider.
Applicant Comment Response & Resubmittal

The staff review comments and referral agency comments are compiled and sorted through. If there are items that the applicant needs to address, these comments are sent back to the applicant along with detailed instructions on what to address.
The applicant is now responsible for resubmitting all requested materials that address the comments raised.
No further work will be done on this application while the Town staff await the applicant's resubmittal.
