At 2400 W. Rasmussen Road, Vincent Criscione is seeking Summit County Housing Authority support for a mixed-use project with 108 rental apartments, 60 condominiums and a 10,000-square-foot children’s center, paired with an all-electric, sustainability-focused design. It would add homes near Kimball Junction without adding as much traffic as a farther-flung subdivision, and board members want more details before backing it.

Criscione, who owns Crisco Development LLC, called the site “beautiful and pristine,” with a Basin Recreation trailhead, a creekside trail and mountain views. He also pointed to the property’s proximity to Kimball Junction services, the Interstate 80 overpass and nearby retailers such as Whole Foods and Walmart as part of the case for higher-density housing in the corridor. The location could reduce driving and greenhouse-gas emissions.

The plan now on the table would place the apartments on the east side of the 23-acre site and the condominiums on a 5-acre west-side parcel. The housing mix includes nine studios, 45 one-bedroom units and 54 two-bedroom units on the rental side, along with a clubhouse, a gym and 293 parking stalls. The west side would hold 60 condominiums in five buildings and 124 parking stalls.

The two-bedroom condos would be priced at about $400,000 for buyers making no more than 80% of Summit County’s area median income. The proposal does not yet spell out the affordability structure for the 108 east-side apartments.

In 2021, the company proposed a preliminary Lincoln View concept for the 22.7-acre site north of Park City RV Resort and south of Summit Self-Storage. That version called for 143 rental units, 18,000 square feet of commercial space, structured parking under four apartment buildings and 6.7 acres of development, with the rest preserved as open space. It also included nonprofit space and a more detailed affordability mix, including units for households at 50% and 80% of area median income.

Criscione now needs a letter of support before taking the proposal to the Snyderville Basin Planning Commission for rezoning and then to the Summit County Council. The Dakota Pacific Real Estate fight made Kimball Junction the focus of 22 public meetings in 2024, a county approval for 725 units under Ordinance No. 987 and a referendum drive that needed 4,554 signatures by March 3, 2025.
