Town of Breckenridge to rent out units to businesses for their employees this winter
Breckenridge is moving forward with a new housing program that would allow businesses to master lease town-owned apartment units, subleasing them to their employees over the winter at 40% to 60% of area median income rental rates.

The town owns the nine apartment units from its buy-down program. While the town is attempting to sell the units, it was decided at the last council meeting that the units should be occupied by local employees as winter approaches. More on Employee Housing.

As a hobbyist, visitor or resident, it can be challenging to capture the natural beauty with a phone that looks as good as what the naked eye takes in during a sunset hike or full-moon snowshoe stroll. Thankfully, the town is filled with galleries that have works by professional photographers and painters as well as other fine art. More Breckenridge Art.
