This week Sun Valley City Council will consider Sun Valley Co.'s proposal to develop its Gun Club property northeast of Sun Valley Village. The council will take action Thursday, May 18, on the company's master plan development application, calling for residential uses and a new 9-hole golf course, on the property located along the east and west sides of Trail Creek Road.
In April, the P&Z approved two associated Sun Valley Co. applications to develop the Gun Club site under a detailed master plan. The Sun Valley Planning and Zoning Commission voted to recommend approval of the master plan application, which provides a general framework for development of property. It was coupled with a design-review application for the Gun Club Nine golf course.
The city's Master Plan Development Ordinance requires the company to set forth land uses and address transportation, sewer, water and open-space issues for the area. The Gun Club master plan application outlines mixed land uses for the 344-acre property, including the 9-hole golf course, Nordic skiing, and low- to medium-density residential housing.
The commission also unanimously voted to approve a design-review application for the golf course called the Gun Club Nine. The P&Z's approval of the golf course design hinges on the City Council's approval of the Gun Club master plan. The golf course design application calls for a 9-hole golf course starting on the west side of Trail Creek Road and climbing onto the Gun Club site's ridgelines before descending back toward the road.
