Board of Supervisors Approves Condo Project
As expected, the Greer Mountain Village Condominiums development was approved by the Apache County Board of Supervisors on Tuesday, May 6th, 2025. The Board emphasized that their decision was based on the fact that Planning & Zoning had unanimously recommended approval.
Several community members spoke at the meeting, as did the developer. A number of community concerns were entered into the record by the speakers, including the lack of subdivision requirements, setback, traffic, drainage and other issues. Governing documents that provide GCR for resort use only and NOT multifamily residential were reviewed in clear language.
We had hoped for some concessions, but that didn’t happen. There were conciliatory words spoken by Supervisor Nelson Davis, acknowledging all the letters and emails that he received from community members opposed to the project and that he says he considered seriously. He stated that he planned to approve this current project but also plans to work on ways to mitigate our concerns in future developments.
Despite our profound disappointment about the approval of this particular project, his acknowledgement in this regard is not insignificant. Our public outcry has had impact and Supervisor Nelson is willing to work with us on the amendment.
The GCI legal team is working on a DRAFT amendment to Article 6 to eliminate residential use within GCR zones going forward. We need legal help for this and continue to request funding for this. If we can be successful in limiting or eliminating further condo development, that would be a significant victory for GCI and Greer neighbors. Please donate what you can to this effort.

We will keep you updated.
