The Project proposes to assess the existing 1,100 SF Snowflake Lodge that was originally constructed in the 1960’s. The District aims to create a bridging document that will serve as the foundation for the design of the new lodge. The Needs Assessment will include the following key components: 1. Space Use Programming: Confirm the specific size and range of services to be offered at the new lodge. The current building is outdated and undersized. A capacity analysis of existing winter operations has identified a significant resort-wide seating deficit, particularly at the Snowflake location. 2. Capital Expenditures Analysis: Determine the capital costs required to construct the new Snowflake Lodge facility and any related projects. 3. Financial Modeling: Explore the revenue potential and operational expenses of the new Snowflake Lodge, and assess its impact on the financial performance of the resort as a whole. 4. Community and Stakeholder Collaboration: Engage with the key stakeholders as well at the community at critical junctures to ensure alignment and address concerns
