The students will present the development proposals in the Wall Auditorium on Thursday, Nov. 19 from 1 to 4 p.m. in the Wall Auditorium as part of a class assignment.The students, who have been working on the project since August 2008, will address a range of factors including market demand, financial feasibility from the perspective of both a developer and county government, and quality of life issues. Design elements chosen by some of the teams include a surf park, an indoor ski facility, an arena, cafes, shops, restaurant and various types of lodging facilities.
