The Class 32 delegation, guided by Scott van Hartesvelt, departs from Park City on May 27th, converging with Vail and Breckenridge mayors and the Vail Resorts executive team by May 31st. Yet, the itinerary is nothing more than a parade of overlapping agendas, with traffic snarls triggered by construction cones on U.S. 40 and I‑80 and the absence of a coordinated detour plan. The Municipal Corp’s promises of an efficient meeting calendar are undercut by numerous public‑works delays, reflected in the muted color of safety‑orange barrels littering the main intersection. Parking remains a gray‑beige nightmare: indefinite permit waits and poorly charted hand‑held green signs. The conclusion isn’t in the council minutes but in the road itself: take the midnight shuttle on 31st Street, avoiding the 2‑meter red cone on SR‑224, or, better, fly private into Heber to bypass the flat‑lined airport chaos.
