Northern South Park Neighborhood Plan, Teton CountyIt's Time to Say Yes to the Northern South Park Neighborhood
For more than six years, the Gill family and the Jackson Hole Hereford Ranch have worked through the public process to create a housing solution for one of Teton County's most pressing challenges.
The Northern South Park (NSP) Neighborhood would provide hundreds of much-needed, small lot homes and multi-family units, including affordable housing opportunities for the teachers, nurses, first responders, snowplow drivers and local families who keep our community running.
The Gill family has deep roots in Jackson Hole dating back over a century. They have listened to feedback, refined their proposal, and remained committed to finding a solution that benefits the community.
After six long years of review, all while local families and friend after friend have been forced to move away, the need for housing has never been more clear. It's time to move forward. Please send a note now to the County commissioners asking them to say Yes to NSP.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Teton County is facing a severe housing shortage that has made it increasingly difficult for teachers, healthcare workers, firefighters, first responders, and other essential workers to live in the community they serve. Stable housing promotes a stronger community, healthy lives and mental health. This project would create approximately 389 deed restricted homes without taxpayer subsidy, helping address one of the county's most pressing challenges.
-
No. Approximately 70% of the proposed homes would be permanently price-restricted and designated for affordable housing. The project is specifically designed to create housing opportunities for local workers and families who are currently priced out of the market.
-
When workers can live closer to their jobs, the entire community benefits. Reduced commuting times, a stronger local workforce, improved employee retention, and increased housing options help support community well-being, mental health, schools, public safety agencies, and healthcare providers.
-
The Gill family has deep roots in Teton County and owns the land needed to make a project of this scale possible. With the backing of Habitat for Humanity of the Greater Teton Area and the Jackson Hole Community Housing Trust, their proposal includes transferring land to nonprofit housing organizations and creating a significant number of affordable homes, demonstrating a commitment to preserving a thriving year-round community.
-
Traffic reduction and management have been a top priority throughout the planning process. Extensive traffic studies, roadway and pathway improvements, transit planning, and a comprehensive construction management plan have all been developed to ensure the project integrates safely and efficiently with the surrounding community.
-
Without meaningful new housing development, home prices and rents are likely to continue rising, forcing more workers to live farther away or leave the area altogether. The result could be longer commutes, staffing shortages, and a continued decline in housing opportunities for the people who make Teton County function every day.
