A developer wants to annex 80 acres of flat farmland into Round Lake, build a hill there, and turn it into a skiing destination. But some people living in the area say that is a slippery slope.
"I don't think it will ever actually become a ski hill," said area resident Daniel Corboda.But developer Dan Powell said,"It's really going be a gorgeous place."
Powell's company, CHDS, provides soil, concrete, and other recycled materials to excavators, landscapers, and construction contractors. "I think what they're proposing is a ski hill, but what they're really doing is building an above-ground landfill," Monaco said. But Powell insists the ski hill project will be completely different from his Wilson Road site -- and the only thing dumped at the proposed ski hill site will be clean soil."This is a clean soils project. It's a means to get to the end -- which is the hill," Powell said."We don't live in a mountainous region, and we have to build that hill."
