About The Telluride Project
Who we are
The Telluride Project is an independent, resident-led effort. It is not affiliated with the Town of Telluride, any other government, the ski company, or any candidate or political party.
[FOUNDER NAMES AND ONE-LINE BIOS]
Why we started
We started by listening. In conversations around town, the same things kept coming up: empty apartments, dark buildings, tax bills nobody could explain, and a sense that big decisions arrive already made. We read the budgets, the meeting packets, and the surveys, and wrote down what we found and what we would do about it.
