When you couple this with the big resorts lobbying local town councils for hikes in property tax for short term rentals (airbnb), designed to force skiers back into expensive, aging resort condos; it will cause a massive drop in the value of middle class homes in Summit County.

The cheaper lower class homes are still out of reach of the resort labor so it won't help them. The workers can't afford housing within driving distance of their resort jobs. Resort buses are making 2 hour each way commute to bring in cheap labor.

Yet Denver traffic will still clog I-70 every weekend.

It's a big money coup.
