Conservationists and officials are voicing opposition to a proposed plan. A land exchange is being considered, involving a private developer and a national park. This exchange would facilitate construction of a road to a plot of land. The plot, 83 acres in size, is slated for development into homes and retail space.

Further details about the proposal are available. A developer, based in Nevada, is involved in the plan.

The proposal has sparked concerns about privatizing national landmarks.
