Last November’s fight over a ballot measure to increase building height limits in the town of Tusayan was funded exclusively by two predictable players, according to a roundup of campaign finance records.
Spending in support of the measure can be traced back to Stilo Development Group USA, the Italian real estate developer that has attempted for decades to build major commercial and housing projects in town. Opposition to higher building heights was bankrolled by hotel owner and property manager Clarinda Vail, a longtime critic of Stilo’s projects.
