HIGH COUNTRY CONSERVATION CENTER offer Home Energy audits and
consultations to help homeowners find cost-effective ways to make their
homes more energy efficient, affordable and comfortable.  Find out about

HCCC also works with local builders, architects and developers to
incorporate energy efficiency strategies into their new construction projects.
Summit Combined Housing Authority's mission is to ensure the
continuing availability and accessibility of appropriate housing
countywide for permanent county residents not otherwise
adequately served by the market.
Our community offers challenges to attainable housing that larger population
centers don’t face.  Our basic industry, tourism, requires a large number of
seasonal workers as well as full time permanent workers, thus our need for
all types of housing, from ownership to employee and short-term rental
housing (6 months or less).  Tourism also creates a diverse employment
base of non-basic industries: retail, housing, utilities, public transportation,
personal care, health, education, local government, finance, entertainment
and social services.  If we cannot provide housing for those that work in these
non-basic industries, it will be difficult, and ultimately perhaps impossible to
sustain our basic industry – tourism.
