The proposed apartment complex overlooking Mono Lake failed to get Board of Supervisors approval earlier this week. It will not double the town’s population and mar the view from South Tufa, increase traffic and challenge parking, put children at risk walking along Hwy 395 to school, or damage the area’s existing and future dark sky tourism!

There are still ancient approvals in place from the early 1990s for a restaurant to be built at the vista point overlooking the lake, and for a large hotel to be built down by the Mobil Station, but apparently those are less likely to be built without fill dirt from the grading for the apartment project. The developer threatened to sell the property to other potential builders if the apartment complex were denied, so there may be future chapters to this saga.
