To the editor:

Many years ago, my then-husband and I moved from the valley to Aspen. He had a ski instructor gig at the mountain, I had a job with Transamerica Title company. We were fortunate to find housing set aside by the property owner specifically as employee housing — not “affordable” housing, but employee housing, since even that long ago, most employees could not afford Aspen rents or house/condo purchase prices and commuted long hours to Basalt, Carbondale and Glenwood Springs.
