Utah developer seeks to block public vote on former Cottonwood Mall site, threatens to abandon residential and retail project

Utah’s largest homebuilder has gone to court in hope of blocking any public vote this fall on its proposed high-density residential and retail development at the former Cottonwood Mall site in Holladay.

A subsidiary of Ivory Homes Ltd. says the company’s legal and financial stakes in the $560 million project are substantial enough to justify it intervening in an emerging court fight between the city and residents opposed to the development dubbed Holladay Quarter.

Lawyers for Ivory Development have filed to dismiss or expedite to the Utah Supreme Court a lawsuit brought against the city by residents Paul Baker and Stephen Stuart.
