“No ski resort, no economic impact, and in my mind, no need to expend public funds to plow a road that leads essentially to a defunct ski resort” Commission Chairman Tom Lizotte said at a meeting.

Should Confalone decide to reopen the facility, the commissioners said they would willing to revisit the matter, but they would want some guarantee in writing. The request would have to be made before budget deliberations so the funds could be restored.


Telephone calls made to Confalone for comment after Tuesday’s meeting were not returned.

Lizotte said the ski resort was not operated last winter and there was no public activity there whatsoever.


If Confalone decided to plow it himself, he would need county approval.

Don't blame them. Hopefully the guy gives in a some point and sells or loses it somehow. And hopefully it's not too late to salvage the ski area.
