Gaylord Rockies Expansion Faces Opposition Over Incentives (denverpost.com)

Ryman Hospitality is seeking to add 450 rooms and a 74,000-square-foot water park to the Gaylord Rockies Resort, but opponents have reassembled a coalition to fight any new state subsidies. The resort already received up to $81.4 million in Regional Tourism Act incentives and $300 million from Aurora, covering nearly half of its $800 million construction costs. The coalition demands public disclosure and an independent analysis before the Economic Development Commission acts, citing legal questions about expanding the existing award.
