Sugar Loaf Renovation Plans Announced

The TC Record-Eagle reports that a focus on snowboarding and skateboarding highlight an estimated $50 million renovation plan for the dormant resort that new owner Kate Wickstrom submitted to Cleveland Township officials.

Wickstrom hopes to reopen the resort’s bar and restaurant by summer, and have two of the ski lifts operating for the 2006-07 winter season for snowboarding and skiing. Also included in plans are converting the Sugar Barn to an indoor skateboard facility, a 135-unit recreational vehicle campground, airport condominiums and extensive modifications to the existing facility.

The Cleveland Township Planning Commission will review the plans at their meeting this Wednesday. Have comments?? Post them below!
