Peak One Parcel
The Peak One Parcel is a 12.68-acre piece of land purchased by the Town in 1998 for municipal purposes. The land is located between the Summit County recreation path and Belford Avenue in the southwest part of town. An unimproved portion of Second Avenue runs through the parcel, connecting to a trailhead parking lot located on U.S. Forest Service land.
The Peak One Parcel is an option toward developing a solution to Frisco’s middle-class housing crunch and is particularly well-suited to a new neighborhood with a diverse mix of housing types and incomes that can offer both market-rate and affordable units. Earlier this year, Frisco hired the firm of Perry Rose to help develop a master plan for the site.
This planning process focuses around public input and consensus building, and is being conducted through a series of public meetings. During the first meeting on October 27, 2007, members of the public participated in a collaborative process to consider alternatives for the use of the Peak One Parcel as a socially and environmentally responsible mixed-income housing community.

Based upon feedback generated during the first town hall meeting, alternative concept plans were created. During the second meeting held on November 29, 2007, three concepts were presented, and the community provided critical and constructive evaluation of the options.

Based on the input and feedback generated during the first two public meetings, a sub-areas map and example site plans of development scenarios was created. During the third meeting held on February 16, 2008, an open house, the public was asked to provide feedback on the sub-areas concept. Click here for a summary of the third meeting.
Town staff, along with Perry Rose, evaluated the feedback provided during all three meetings, and created the Peak One Parcel Master Plan.
