 St Regis, Dakota Mtn Lodge, Treasure Hill, Summit Research Park and more             As the funicular cars fro access to the new St Regis Hotel at Deer Crest in Deer Valley were set to be installed (Friday July 17,2009), local radio station KPCW was airing a story about a Deer Crest residence owner suing the project and its developers.             The radio report indicates that the owner of a home and lot in the lower portion of Deer Crest near the base of the Jordanelle Gondola at Deer Valley Resort has brought a lawsuit against the developers of the St Regis claiming that the developer has improperly changed the original documents pertaining to the parking and access to the hotel at Roosevelt Gap (above the Lower Deer Valley area of Park City, Utah). The complaint stems from the parking that now exists at the hotel and the employee parking lot and shuttle to the hotel from the base area near the gondola. The Deer Crest home owner claims that traffic impacts on the private road through Deer Crest (Deer hollow Rd.) due to the employee shuttles, taxi and limousine service, and service/delivery trucks is outside the scope of the original guidelines for the area and that changes to the guidelines were made improperly.             The St Regis at Deer Crest developers have counter-sued claiming that all changes were made legally and stated that the filing was an attempt to gain access to the amenities of the hotel by the property owner.             In other Park City real estate news, the new Dakota Mountain Lodge at The Canyons Resort in Park City opened its doors for business. The Dakota Mountain Lodge is a part of the internationally renowned Waldorf-Astoria Collection luxury hotels.             The Snyderville Planning Commission has approved guidelines for the Summit Research Park. The research park is an 89 acre development in the Kimball Junction  area of Park City just off hwy 224 near the I-80 interchange.  The development is scheduled to begin work soon with some road improvements designed to improve traffic flow around the Landmark Dr. Area. The development of the research park with the housing and business construction around it has a possible 20-year build out.             In other planning commission news, the Park City Planning department is scheduled to hear more on the Old Town area Treasure Hill development. This possible large hotel and residential development on the southern hillside above Old Town appears to be moving forward.             The fact that there are major projects finishing up, under construction, and being planned for the near future are positive signs for the future value of real estate in Park City and Deer Valley. These developments will have impacts both positive and negative for many other Park City area communities and developments.
