Elected leaders in Draper have delayed a controversial housing development proposed for Traverse Ridge while they look into allegations against two City Council members of undue influence by the developer.

Mayor Troy Walker said Wednesday the city would hire an outside attorney to probe accusations that council members Alan Summerhays and Michele Weeks may have been swayed by favors from Shaun Michel of Sandy-based Michel Land.

Michel and his company have been seeking city approval for Mountain Ridge Estates, a proposal to build 106 single-family homes on about 83 hillside acres they own at about 2100 East Lake Bluff Drive, near the existing Suncrest subdivision on Draper’s southern end.
